We propose an alternative to the method of generalized estimating equations (GEE) for inference about binary longitudinal data. Unlike GEE, the method is practicable when the data consist of long time series on each subject and the set of observation times is not necessarily common to all subjects.
## SUM MARY Consideration is given to survival data analysis by modelling the hazard as a discrete function of time. This is done for each individual who is examined independently from the other individuals of the sample observed. Assuming time has been divided into intervals of the same length, t
