<strong>The</strong> “Fit Statistics” table in Figure 56.6 lists several pieces of information about the fitted mixed<br />

model, including values derived from the computed value of the restricted/residual likelihood.<br />

<strong>The</strong> “Type 3 Tests of Fixed Effects” table in Figure 56.7 displays significance tests for the three<br />

effects listed in the MODEL statement. <strong>The</strong> Type 3 F statistics and p-values are the same as those<br />

produced by the GLM procedure. However, because PROC <strong>MIXED</strong> uses a likelihood-based esti-
