Mixed effects models are widely used to describe heterogeneity in a population, in particular inter and intra individual variabilities. A crucial issue when adjusting such a model to data consists in identifying the fixed and random effects of the model, also called population and individual parameters, respectively. The firstt ones can be considered constant in the population, whereas the second ones vary among individuals.From a statistical point of view, it can be expressed like a test on the nullity of the variances of a given subset of random effects. This issue of variance components testing has been addressed by several authors. In the context of linear mixed effects models, likelihood ratio test procedures have been proposed and res...
