27.5 Testing the Assumptions of Age-to-Age Factors - G. Venter

\(\star \star\) Goodness of fit measure:

• Adj SSE (5.1)

• AIC (5.2)

• BIC (5.3)

6 testable implications

2. \(\star \star\) Is there a better estimate for \(q\) than \(f \times c\)

   • Number of parameters (Table 5.3)

   • Counting parameters

   • \(\star \star\) BF parameters (Table 5.4)

   • Iteration process

3. \(\star \star\) No correlation among columns

   • Remember we are testing \(f(d)\) so LDF - 1

   • Pearson correlation calculation (5.4) and test statistics (5.5)

   • To test for all different pairs (not just adjacent pairs) (5.6)

4. No particularly high or low diagonals

   • Setting up regression with CY dummy variable (5.7)
