On beta regression residuals

Patricia Espinheira, Silvia Ferrari and Francisco Cribari-Neto

Journal of Applied Statistics, 2008, vol. 35, issue 4, 407-419

Abstract: We propose two new residuals for the class of beta regression models, and numerically evaluate their behaviour relative to the residuals proposed by Ferrari and Cribari-Neto. Monte Carlo simulation results and empirical applications using real and simulated data are provided. The results favour one of the residuals we propose.
