Statistical inferences for linear regression models when the covariates have functional relationships: polynomial regression

Statistical inferences for linear regression models when the covariates have functional relationships: polynomial regression
In many linear regression models, there are functional relationships among the covariates. The usual (partial) F tests for these models do not utilize these functional relationships, however, and so have certain undesirable properties. Improvements over these F tests are proposed in this article, and they are based on simultaneous confidence bands. For ease of illustration of the ideas, we focus on the polynomial regression model.

Abstract

In many linear regression models, there are functional relationships among the covariates. The usual (partial) F tests for these models do not utilize these functional relationships, however, and so have certain undesirable properties. Improvements over these F tests are proposed in this article, and they are based on simultaneous confidence bands. For ease of illustration of the ideas, we focus on the polynomial regression model.
