Comparison of different ACE(t)-p models to test a linear or a constant variance component.
1 | test_acetp(acetp, comp, sim = 100, robust = 0, pe = TRUE, verbose = TRUE)
|
acetp |
An object from the AtCtEtp function. |
comp |
The component for which linearity or constancy is tested. This component must be specified as splines or linear in the AtCtEtp function. |
sim |
The number of the bootstrap resampling for approximating the null distribution when testing linearity. |
robust |
An integer indicating the number of different initial values that the function will randomly generate and try in the optimization. The default value is 0. |
pe |
A logical argument indicating whether to use penalized spline model to test linearity. The default value is TRUE. |
verbose |
A logical argument indicating whether to print testing information and results. The default value is TRUE. |
When pe=TRUE, the linearity is tested under a p-spline framework in which an LRT is performed. Otherwise, a χ^2 test is performed for linearity under a spline framework without penalty on smoothness.
p |
The p-value for the test. |
llr |
The LRT statistic for testing linearity. |
llr_sim |
The simulated null distribution of the LRT statistic for testing linearity. |
chisq |
The chisq statistic for testing a constant or linearity. |
