Finite Population Correction for Multistate Multiseason

Postby kyle.artym » Fri Nov 27, 2015 9:52 pm

Is it possible to apply a finte population correction to multistate multiseason models?
If yes, is the methodology outlined somewhere?

Thank you,

Kyle

It's certainly possible. When using maximum likelihood and PRESENCE you can using the delta-method to figure out the correct variance should be, not sure of anyone that has actually done that though. It is very easy to within OpenBUGS though if doing things in a Bayesian context.

Oh, awesome. Thank you Darryl!

So since I used the delta method to calculate the proper variances, the finite population correction is taken care of? Is this because the of the values generated in the variance-covariance matrix?

Also, what's the best way to report model-averaged parameter effects for continuous variables. I've seen a couple people use the parameter beta's in the literature, but with model averages calculated on the probability scale I'm not sure what the best approach is. I have beautiful graphs though. :)

Thanks again,

Kyle
