Robust testing with generalized partial linear models for longitudinal data

By approximating the nonparametric component using a regression spline in generalized partial linear models (GPLM), robust generalized estimating equations (GEE), involving bounded score function and leverage-based weighting function, can be used to estimate the regression parameters in GPLM robustly for longitudinal data or clustered data. In this paper, score test statistics are proposed for testing the regression parameters with robustness, and their asymptotic distributions under the null hypothesis and a class of local alternative hypotheses are studied. The proposed score tests reply on the estimation of a smaller model without the testing parameters involved, and perform well in the simulation studies and real data analysis conducted in this paper.

Dementia Problem Behavior and the Production of Informal Caregiving Services

Informal caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer's disease spend a considerable amount of time providing care. In this paper, we use Grossman's health production and Becker's time allocation models to develop a model of informal care provision to elderly dementia patients. In our model, time inputs produce caregiving services, which provides utility to the caregiver, but reduces leisure. We assume that time is less productive of services on the margin as the disease progresses. In this framework, an increase in patients' disease severity does not necessarily increase informal caregiver time input. The cost of formal care establishes a reservation price for informal caregiving. When the costs of informal caregiving rise above this reservation level, the patient is institutionalized. We test empirically the effect of deterioration in the patients' condition, proxied by both disease severity and dementia problem behavior, on informal caregiving time. We find that dementia-related problem behaviors and functional limitations significantly increase inputs of informal caregiving time. Patients' problem behavior exerts a modifying effect on functional limitations, and patients' comorbidities have no effect on informal caregiving time.

飞灰冲蚀条件下材料抗磨性能的试验研究

本文首先综述了国内外学者在研究塑性材料耐冲蚀磨损性能方面所取得的主要成果,并在专门建立的灰磨试验台上,对电站燃煤锅炉对流受热面常用材料20号钢、12Cr_1MoV合金铜以及铜、铝四种塑性材料进行了耐飞灰冲蚀磨损性能的试验研究。提出用材料的体积磨损率来定义材料的耐冲蚀磨损性能系数。并用它表征塑性材料的抗磨性能。该系数可直接应用于计算燃煤锅炉对流受热面的安全烟速。
