Measurement Error Models

Measurement Error Models (ISBN: 9780470316665) was written by Wayne A. Fuller in 1987.

A measurement Xt is decomposed into the true value xt and the measurement error ut.

When a linear model is constructed as Yt = β0 + β1xt + et but estimated as Yt = βˆ0 + βˆ1Xt = βˆ0 + βˆ1(xt + ut), then the expected values are characterized by:

And the covariance matrix is specified as:

We assume that xt, et, and ut are all independent.
