Dear all, Thank you for your remarks. The data under analysis were multiply-imputed using Mice. To compare the nested models, I used the following R codes by van Buuren: pool.compare (Model2, Model1, method = c("wald"), data = NULL) As far as I know the Wald statistic tests the null hypothesis that

Yes-- there's no paradox; the adjusted R^2 and deviance are looking at/testing different things. Also you don't say *what* deviance you are looking at, but your interpretation of the deviance is probably wrong. A significant test for anova(model2, model1) says that x3 & x4 add significantly to p

Hello, I am currently analysed two nested models using the same sample. Both the simpler model (Model 1 ~ x1 + x2) and the more complex model (Model 2 ~ x1 + x2 + x3 + x4) yield the same adjusted R-square. Yet the p-value associated with the deviance statistic is highly significant (p=0.0047),
