      Iterated GLS has a remarkable property when applied to the random effects model in its usual parameterization. The values for the parameter that measures relative variance, obtained through successive iterations, form a monotonic sequence. This property provides convenient checks for multiple maxima of the likelihood function and for existence of a local maximum that satisfies the non-negativity condition.
