Evaluation of Generalized Variance Functions in the Analysis of Complex Survey Data

Two sets of diagnostics are presented to evaluate the properties of generalized variance functions (GVFs) for a given sample survey. The first set uses test statistics for the coefficients of multiple regression forms of GVF models. The second set uses smoothed estimators of the mean squared error (...
