TY  - JOUR
AB - Under model correctness, highly accurate inference on a scalar interest parameter inthe presence of a nuisance parameter can be achieved by several routes, among themconsidering the bootstrap distribution of the signed root likelihood ratio statistic. Thecontext of model mis-specification is considered and inference based on a robust formof the signed root statistic is discussed in detail. Stability of the distribution of thestatistic allows accurate inference, outperforming that based on first-order asymptoticapproximation, by considering the bootstrap distribution of the statistic under theincorrectly assumed distribution. Comparisons of this simple approach with alternativeanalytic and non-parametric inference schemes are discussed.
