On the prevalence of uninformative parameters in statistical models applying model selection in applied ecology
Table 2
Summary statistics (number and percentage of articles) of uninformative parameter assessment for four top journals in applied ecology. Articles were classified into four different categories for the prevalence of uninformative parameters in model sets–see main text for description of categories. The number of articles and percent of articles reported are compared to the subset of articles with AIC per journal, except in the final row which reports the totals across all journals. UP = uninformative parameter.
