We consider the panel data regression model with nested error componets. In this paper, the several Lagrange Multipler tests for the nested error component model are derived. These tests extend the earlier work of Honda(1985), Moulton and Randolph(1989), Baltagi, et al.(1992) and King and Wu(1997) to the nested error component case. Monte Carlo experiments are conducted to study the performance of these LM tests.

In this paper, we consider the panel data regression model in which the disturbances have nested error component. We derive a Lagrange Multiplier(LM) test which is jointly testing for the presence of random individual effects and nested effects under the normality assumption of the disturbances. This test extends the earlier work of Breusch and Pagan(1980) and Baltagi and Li(1991). Further, it is shown that this LM test has the same asymptotic distribution without normality assumption of the disturbances.

In applications using a linear regression model with nested error structure, one might be interested in making inferences concerning variance components. This article proposes approximate confidence intervals on the variance component of the primary level in a simple linear regression model with an unbalanced nested error structure. The intervals are compared using computer simulation and recommendations are provided for selecting an appropriate interval.

We study a semiparametric Bayesian approach to small area estimation under a nested error linear regression model with area level covariate subject to measurement error. Consideration is given to radial basis functions for the regression spline and knots on a grid of equally spaced sample quantiles of covariate with measurement errors in the nested error linear regression model setup. We conduct a hierarchical Bayesian structural measurement error model for small areas and prove the propriety of the joint posterior based on a given hierarchical Bayesian framework since some priors are defined non-informative improper priors that uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods to fit it. Our methodology is illustrated using numerical examples to compare possible models based on model adequacy criteria; in addition, analysis is conducted based on real data.

This paper considers a panel data regression model in which the disturbances follow a nested error components with serial correlation. Given this model, this paper derives several Lagrange Multiplier(LM) testis for the presence of serial correlation as well as random individual effects, nested effects, and for existence of serial correlation given random individual and nested effects.

A regression model with nested erroe structure is considered. The regression model includes two error terms that are independent and normally distributed with zero means and constant variances. This error structure of the model gives correlated response variables. The distributions of variance components in the regression model with nested error structure are dervied by using theorems for quadratic forms.

In regression model with nested error structure interval estimations on regression coefficients in different stages are proposed. Ordinary least square estimators and generalized least square estimators of the regression coefficients in this model are derived for between and within group model. The confidence intervals are dervied by using independent idstributional properties between regression coefficient estimators and quadratic froms obtained from the model.

Regression model with nested error structure interval estimations about variability on different stages are proposed. This article derives an approximate confidence interval on the variance in the first stage and an exact confidence interval on the variance in the second stage in two stage regression model. The approximate confidence interval is based on Ting et al. (1990) method. Computer simulation is provided to show that the approximate confidence interval maintains the stated confidence coefficient.

Those who are interested in making inferences concerning linear combination of valiance components in a simple linear regression model with unbalanced nested error structure can use the confidence intervals proposed in this paper. Two approximate confidence intervals for the sum of two variance components in the model are proposed. Simulation study is peformed to compare the methods. The methods are applied to a numerical example and recommendations are given for choosing a proper interval.
