In a study using a saturated model, the Likelihood Ratio Test (LRT) statistic Λ\LambdaΛ comparing a nested model with ppp parameters to a model with qqq parameters (q>pq > pq>p) is calculated. Under the null hypothesis that the additional q−pq-pq−p parameters are zero, what is the geometric interpretation of −2ln⁡Λ-2\ln\Lambda−2lnΛ in terms of the log-likelihood surface?
