The Gibbons, Ross, and Shanken Test for Portfolio Efficiency: A Note Based on Its Trigonometric Properties

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
This study is intended as a note and provides an extension to a much-used and established test for portfolio efficiency, the Gibbons, Ross, and Shanken GRS-Wald test.

A Note on the Wald, Lagrangian Multiplier and Likelihood Ratio Tests when the Information Matrix is Singular [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Statistical Journal, 1988
Modified formulas for the Wald and Lagrangian multiplier statistics are introduced and considered together with the likelihood ratio statistic for testing a typical null hypothesis Ho stated in terms of equality constraints.

Latent-variable Approaches Utilizing Both Item Scores and Response Times To Detect Test Fraud

open access: yesOpen Education Studies, 2021
There is a growing interest in approaches based on latent-variable models for detecting fraudulent behavior on educational tests. Wollack and Schoenig (2018) noted the presence of five types of statistical/psychometric approaches to detect the three ...

A power approximation for the Kenward and Roger Wald test in the linear mixed model.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
We derive a noncentral [Formula: see text] power approximation for the Kenward and Roger test. We use a method of moments approach to form an approximate distribution for the Kenward and Roger scaled Wald statistic, under the alternative.

A New Matrix Statistic for the Hausman Endogeneity Test under Heteroskedasticity

open access: yesEconometrics, 2023
We derive a new matrix statistic for the Hausman test for endogeneity in cross-sectional Instrumental Variables estimation, that incorporates heteroskedasticity in a natural way and does not use a generalized inverse.

Duration of Surgery and Learning Curve Affect Rotator Cuff Repair Retear Rates: A Post Hoc Analysis of 1600 Cases

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair can be quite complex and time consuming, particularly early in the surgeon’s learning curve. Hypothesis: Patients who have undergone rotator cuff repair with shorter operative times will be less likely to have

Overview and evaluation of various frequentist test statistics using constrained statistical inference in the context of linear regression

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
Within the framework of constrained statistical inference, we can test informative hypotheses, in which, for example, regression coefficients are constrained to have a certain direction or be in a specific order. A large amount of frequentist informative

Location-adjusted Wald statistics for scalar parameters [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2019
Inference about a scalar parameter of interest is a core statistical task that has attracted immense research in statistics. The Wald statistic is a prime candidate for the task, on the grounds of the asymptotic validity of the standard normal approximation to its finite-sample distribution, simplicity and low computational cost.

On a Constrained Testing Hypotheses Problem. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Statistical Journal, 1997
This paper gives a proof that the likelihood ratio statistic, based on a sample x= (x1,…,xn) on a p-dimensional random variable X, converges in distribution to a noncentral chi-square distribution under a class of local alternatives, for a multi ...
