Table 1. Results from our model-selection procedure used to select the number of NPI periods in each region.

Region ΔAICc ΔBIC
Navajo Nation -6.4 -15.7
Arizona 76.2 66.7
Colorado 108.3 99.1
New Mexico 56.6 47.4
Utah 98.1 89.0

We calculated the value of the Akaike information criterion corrected for small sample size (AICc) for n = 0 and n = 1 versions of the model, as well as and value of the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) for the same two versions of each model. We defined ΔAICc = AICcn = 0AICcn = 1 and BIC = BICn = 0BICn = 1. We adopted n = 1 over n = 0 when ΔAICc > 10 and ΔBIC > 10 (i.e., we reject the hypothesis that n = 0 when both ΔAICc and ΔBIC are greater than 10). Accordingly, n = 0 is indicated only for the Navajo Nation and n > 0 is indicated for all four surrounding states.
