Abstract
The main purpose of this article is to introduce a new class of regression models for bounded continuous data, commonly encountered in applied research. The models, named the power logit regression models, assume that the response variable follows a distribution in a wide, flexible class of distributions with three parameters, namely, the median, a dispersion parameter and a skewness parameter. The article offers a comprehensive set of tools for likelihood inference and diagnostic analysis, and introduces the new R package PLreg. Applications with real and simulated data show the merits of the proposed models, the statistical tools, and the computational package.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
