Deviance analysis of age-period-cohort models

No 2014-W03, Economics Papers from Economics Group, Nuffield College, University of Oxford

Abstract: Age-period-cohort models for Lexis diagrams are considered. The identi - cation problem is addressed by reparametrizing the models in terms of freely varying parameters. The reparametrisation covers all three Lexis diagrams. A new plot of the unidenti ed time e ects is suggested and interpreted. Deviance analysis covering a wide range of sub-models is presented. The methods are applied to Belgian lung cancer data.
