英文摘要 | This paper re-visits the problem of estimating the regression error variance in a linear multiple regression model after preliminary hypothesis tests for either linear restrictions on the coefficients or homogeneity of variances. There is an extensive literature that discusses these problems, particularly in terms of the sampling properties of the pre-test estimators using various loss functions as the basis for risk analysis. In this paper, a unified framework for analysing the risk properties of these estimators is developed under a general class of loss structures that incorporates virtually all first-order differentiable losses. Particular consideration is given to the choice of critical values for the pre-tests. Analytical results indicate that an alpha-level substantially higher than those normally used may be appropriate for optimal risk properties under a wide range of loss functions. The paper also generalizes some known analytical results in the pre-test literature and proves other results only previously shown numerically. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. |
