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.

In recent work by various authors, models for categorical response data subject to non-ignorable non-response have been considered. While the emphasis of those papers has been largely on the computational aspects of fitting those models, it has also been observed that such models present certain ana
