title: Modelling balanced longitudinal data: maximum likelihood estimation and analysis of variance.
abstract: For linear models, assuming a within-experimental-units covariance structure that incorporates errors of measurement, serial correlation, and variation between units, results on explicit estimation of regression parameters are used to simplify maximum likelihood estimation of covariance parameters. The use of an analysis of variance table as a simpler alternative to likelihood inference is illustrated with two examples.
