Estimable Functions • A linear function of the parameter vector b, h’b is said to be estimable if h’=t’X. That is, if h’ can be written as a linear function of the rows of X
Application: Comparison of t=4 Antidepressants • Response: Y = Change in libido scores for patients on antidepressants • Treatments: t=4 Brands of antidepressants • Prozac (r1 = 37) • Paxil (r2 = 21) • Zoloft (r3 = 27) • Wellbutrin (r4 = 22) • N=107, t=4, Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft are SSRI’s, Wellbutrin not • Will make generalizations of case t=3
