Dispersion Parameter Extension of Precise Generalized Linear Mixed Model Asymptotics

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We extend a recently established asymptotic normality theorem for generalized linear mixed models to include the dispersion parameter. The new results show that the maximum likelihood estimators of all model parameters have asymptotically normal distributions with asymptotic mutual independence between fixed effects, random effects covariance and dispersion parameters. The dispersion parameter maximum likelihood estimator has a particularly simple asymptotic distribution which enables straightforward valid likelihood-based inference.
