Abstract
We derive general formulae for the second-order biases of maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters in generalized nonlinear models with dispersion covariates. This result generalizes previous work by Botter and Cordeiro (1998) and Cordeiro and McCullagh (1991). The practical use of such bias corrections is illustrated in a simulation study.
