As in the package mgcv
, based on the results of Wood (2013), ‘Bayesian p-values’ are returned for the smooth terms. These have
better frequentist performance than their frequentist counterpart. Let \hat{\bf f}
and V_f denote the vector of values of a smooth term evaluated at the original covariate values and the
corresponding Bayesian covariance matrix, and let V_f^{r-} denote
the rank r pseudoinverse of V_f. The statistic used
is T=\hat{\bf f}^\prime {\bf V}_f^{r-} \hat{\bf f}. This is
compared to a chi-squared distribution with degrees of freedom given by r, which is obtained by
biased rounding of the estimated degrees of freedom. See Wood (2013) for further details.
Note that covariate selection can also be achieved using a single penalty shrinkage approach as shown in Marra and Wood (2011).
Consider also using the version of the model implemented in the gamlss()
function of the
SemiParBIVProbit
package, where p-value calculations are more rigorous.
