This book contains 296 exercises and solutions covering a wide variety of topics in linear model theory, including generalized inverses, estimability, best linear unbiased estimation and prediction, ANOVA, confidence intervals, simultaneous confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, and variance component estimation. The models covered include the Gauss-Markov and Aitken models, mixed and random effects models, and the general mixed linear model. Given its content, the book will be useful for students and instructors alike. Readers can also consult the companion textbook Linear Model Theory - With Examples and Exercises by the same author for the theory behind the exercises.

Recensioner i media

“This volume contains solutions to the book's exercises … Many of those exercises stand as useful applications of results stated in the theory volume. Some of them go one step beyond and extend the theoretical results. I found this to be a very interesting and unique feature of the book on linear models, making the whole set particularly useful for both graduate students and instructors.” (Vassilis G. S. Vasdekis, Mathematical Reviews, August 2022)
