This study compares models for repeated measures data with many zeros. It evaluates a left-censored lognormal model against a two-part model, offering insights into handling zero-inflated data in statistical analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Statistics
  • Biostatistics
  • Statistical Modeling

Background:

  • Repeated measures data frequently exhibit a high proportion of zero values.
  • Standard statistical models may not adequately capture the complex nature of zero-inflated data.
  • Understanding the relationship between zero and non-zero values is crucial for accurate analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare different statistical models for analyzing repeated measures data with numerous zeros.
  • To assess the validity of a left-censored lognormal model versus a two-part model.
  • To investigate the relationship between the occurrence of zeros and the magnitude of non-zero values.

Main Methods:

  • Modeling zeros as left-censored observations from a lognormal distribution with a random subject effect.

  • Implementing a two-part model: a logistic model for the probability of a non-zero value and a lognormal model for non-zero values.
  • Comparing model fits using data from children's private speech.
  • Main Results:

    • The left-censored lognormal model assumes a strong relationship between zero and non-zero values.
    • The two-part model assumes a weaker relationship, primarily through a covariance component.
    • Model performance is evaluated through comparison on a real-world dataset.

    Conclusions:

    • The choice of model depends on the assumed relationship between zero and non-zero values.
    • The two-part model offers flexibility by separating the zero-inflation and value-magnitude components.
    • These models provide a framework for analyzing zero-inflated repeated measures data in various scientific fields.
