The method of pairwise likelihood is investigated for analyzing clustered or longitudinal binary data. The pairwise likelihood is a product of bivariate likelihoods for within cluster pairs of observations, and its maximizer is the maximum pairwise likelihood estimator. We discuss the computational

โฆ Synopsis
We discuss methods for analyzing repeated binary measurements on the same individual. In spite of the fact that the repeated measurements on the same individual are correlated, the ordinary logistic regression maximum likelihood estimates (which assume that the repeated measures are independent) are consistent and asymptotically normal (K. Y. Liang and S. L. Zeger, Biometrika 73,13 (1986)). However, the inverse of the estimated information matrix (assuming independence) can give inconsistent estimates of the asymptotic variance of estimated parameters. We describe how to obtain the logistic regression estimates, as well as a consistent estimate of their covariance matrix, in SAS, with minimal matrix manipulations.

In the context of the first-order auto-logistic model for dichotomous spatial data, we obtain the first statistical test for comparing two geographical areas on the basis of their statistical properties. These optimal unbiased tests are illustrated with an example which features the Markov chain Mon
Dental research studies often produce relatively small data sets in which observations are serially or spatially correlated. Rerandomization tests are presented as alternatives to analysis of variance and multivariate analysis for assessing group differences using such data. Rerandomization tests ar
We consider modeling the familial correlation between 2 related individuals using a multiple logistic regressive model. It is shown that there is a discrepancy in the marginal probability of the second individual. We investigate the conditions under which this discrepancy can be minimized and show h
