Hello dear uesRs, I am working on modeling both level one and level two heteroscedasticity in HLM. In my model, both error variance and variance of random intercept / random slope are affected by some level two variables. I found that nlme is able to model heteroscedasticity. I learned how to use it for level one heteroscedasticity but don't know how to use it to model the l...

Dear all, Sorry if this is too obvious. I am trying to fit my multiple regression model using lm() Before starting model simplification using step() I checked whether the model presented heteroscedasticity with ncv.test() from the CAR package. It presents it. I want to correct for it, I used hccm() from the CAR package as well and got the Heteroscedasticity-Corrected Covariance Matrix. I am not sure what am I supposed to do with the matrix. I guess I should run my model again telling it to use that...

...all, temperature and sunshine hours. M2=glmer(SG~AC+EC+TP+SS+RF+(1|Location/fSi/fTr), family=binomial,data=data,nAGQ=1) As the dependent variable is percent cover, I used a binomial error structure. I also have a random effect due to nested of the data collection strategy. However, I keep getting heteroscedasticity issues as shown in the image below. I have tried using an arcsine transformation (with a lme), but the scatter of residuals are still very much similar. What else can I do to try to resolve the heteroscedasticity in my data? Any help will be very much appreciated! <http://r.789695.n4.nabble.c...

Your understanding isn't similar to mine. Mine says robust/resistant methods are for data with heavy tails, not heteroscedasticity. The common ways to approach heteroscedasticity are transformation and weighting. The first is easy and usually quite effective for dose-response data. The second is not much harder. Both can be done in R with nls(). Andy From: Quin Wills > > I am using "nls" to fit dose-resp...

Hi I am actually running the White test for correcting Heteroscedasticity. I used sandwich() & car(), however the output shows the updated t test of coefficients, with revised Standard Errors, however the estimates remained same. My problem is that the residuals formed a pattern in the original regression equation. After running the White's test, I got some ne...

Dear All, I'm trying to model heteroscedasticity using a multilevel model. To do so, I make use of the nlme package and the weigths-parameter. Let's say that I hypothesize that the exam score of students (normexam) is influenced by their score on a standardized LR test (standLRT). Students are of course nested in "schools"....

Hello, I have tried to generate numbers randomly which follow normal, Student-t and skewed Student-t distributions. However, when I check those series for heteroscedastisity test (ARCH) results are showing that there is no heteroscedastisity. As we all know, returns (financial returns) usually have heteroscedastisity. My question is, is it possible somehow generate random numbers which have

Dear altogether, is it possible to integrate "weights" arguments within lmer to incorporate statements to handle heteroscedasticity as it is possible with lme? I searched the R-archive but found nothing, insofer I assume it is not possible, but as lmer is under heavy develpoment, maybe something changed or is solved differently. Thus my question: While encountering heavy heteroscedasticity within data, lmer is not the rig...

Hello, I have just recently started using R and was wondering whether anybody had a code written for White's heteroscedasticity correction for standard errors. Also, can anybody share a code for the GARCH(1,1) and GARCH-in-mean models for modelling regression residuals? Thanks a lot in advance, Spyros --------------------------------- [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...at funktion for doing that: a <- rmvnorm(n=10000,mean=c(20,20),sigma=matrix(c(5,0.8*sqrt(50), 0.8*sqrt(50),10),2,2)) (using library(mvtnorm)) Now I also want to generate two correlated variables where the error variance vary over the variable-correlation. And I want to plot this for showing heteroscedasticity. Like shown here: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/de/1/1b/Heteroske2.png Is that possible with R?

Dear All, i want to use garch model in return of stock. and the data should presence volatility cluster (Heteroscedasticity). Do you know how to test volatility cluster (the presence of heteroscedasticity) in series data of stock return in R? Is it using Langrange Multiplier (LM) ARCH test? what package i should use? I really need the help. Thanks for the attention. Eko A P

To detect heteroscedasticity for a multiple linear OLS regression (no time dependencies): What if the residuals vs. fitted values plot shows well behaved residuals (cloud) - but the some of the x versus residuals plots are a megaphone? Also, it seems that textbooks and internet tutorials in R do not agree what is the best...

...elp in either case. I'm currently working on a MC-simulation in which I would like to control the skewness of a heteroscedastic dependent variable defined as: y=d*z+sqrt(.5+.5*x^2)*e (eq.1) where d is a parameter and, z, x, and e are gamma r.vs. The variables x (the one creating the heteroscedasticity) and z are assumed to be positively correlated. I thought that since the two terms on the rhs of eq.1 are uncorrelated the 3rd central moment of y should equal the sum of the 3rd central moments of the two terms on the rhs. This seems to be correct as long as x and z in eq1 are uncorrelated....

...Q2,random=~1|Group,data=file,na.action=na.omit, method="ML", weights=varExp(form=~Q1)) I saw on the forum that lmer had problems in taking into account variance heterogeneity. Yet, the messages were old and there are maybe new solutions. How can I correct the analyses for this problem of heteroscedasticity? Should I normalise the within group variance before implementing the model? And deal with the variance (as a new variable to explain) in another model? Is there another way to solve this problem? Thank you in advance for your help Doris Gomez [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, First, sorry for my poor english, I will try to be understood. It's the first time I try this "r-help mailing list" and I hope it will be a success. I am working on heteroscedasticity analysis. I would like to get the "Box-Ljung" and the "Lagrange multipliers" test. I found the first one in the library "ts", but I can't find the second one. Does anybody know how this test can be called. Vincent Spiesser

Hi everybody, I'm trying to analyse a set of data with a non-normal response, 2 fixed effects and 1 nested random effect with strong heteroscedasticity in the model. I planned to use the function lmer : lmer(resp~var1*var2 + (1|rand)) and then use permutations based on the t-statistic given by lmer to get p-values. 1/ Is it a correct way to obtain p-values for my variables ? (see below) 2/ I read somewhere that lme is more adequate when hete...
