However, even when the outcome variable follows a continuous distribution, its temporal variation may equal zero with positive probability, resulting in a mixture distribution characterized by a mass at zero alongside a continuous component. To address this, we propose a mixture model and derive estimators for both the conditional probability of no variation and the expected value of the continuous component, focusing on the partial effects. We establish the asymptotic consistency and normality of these estimators and show that paired bootstrap provides consistent confidence intervals for the expected outcome. Monte Carlo simulations show good finite-sample performance of the estimators and reveal that the zero-inflated phenomenon under study can yield substantially different functional relationships depending on the underlying parameters, often making linear models unreliable.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49475,"journal":{"name":"Statistics & Probability Letters","volume":"226 ","pages":"Article 110477"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144254516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, studies in medical research often require the identification of several significant risk factors simultaneously. In the literature, one of the ubiquitous approaches that strongly control the familywise error rate for multiple tests is the Holm’s step-down procedure. It elegantly applies the first-degree Bonferroni inequality at each step to make inference decisions. On the other hand, when the number of to-be-tested hypotheses is large, Holm’s procedure unavoidably inherits the conservativeness of the Bonferroni inequality, which makes it almost useless when dealing with large number of populations. In this paper, we propose a sequentially rejective procedure for simultaneous inference on odds ratios. We prove that, when testing multiple odds ratios, the new procedure is uniformly more powerful than the Holm’s procedure. Simulation studies show that the improvement is substantial in some scenarios.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49475,"journal":{"name":"Statistics & Probability Letters","volume":"226 ","pages":"Article 110464"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144264042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
