[NMusers] Predictive Performance

Hi everybody,
I had a question about the Predictive performance of the POPPK Model.
When I am estimating the precision and bias with the POPPK model I have, am
I supposed to use the individual predictions or the population predictions
???

I am using "Some suggestions for Measuring Predictive Performance" by
Sheiner and Beal : J Pk and Bio Vol (4) 1981 :503-512 as reference.

I guess I should be using the population predictions to calculate the
precision and bias as I want to use the model to predict the plasma
concentrations. Or does this choice depend on anything else ??
If I am using the Population predictions then, where else would I be using
the individual Predictions apart from plotting them against the DV to
evaluate the Goodness of Fit?


Thanks in advance
