摘要
A simple case of Poisson regression is used to study the potential gain in efficiency from using a mixed model representation. Possible systematic errors arising from misspecification of the random terms in the model are examined. It is shown in particular that for a special but realistic problem, appreciable bias may arise from misspecification of a random component.
