Multivariate Generalized Linear Mixed Models Using R

Auteur

Damon M. Berridge is a senior lecturer in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Lancaster University. Dr. Berridge has nearly 20 years of experience as a statistical consultant. His research focuses on the modeling of binary and ordinal recurrent events through random effects models, with application in medical and social statistics.

Robert Crouchley is a professor of applied statistics and director of the Centre for e-Science at Lancaster University. His research interests involve the development of statistical methods and software for causal inference in nonexperimental data. These methods include models for errors in variables, missing data, heterogeneity, state dependence, nonstationarity, event history data, and selection effects.

In medical and social science research, MGLMMs help disentangle state dependence from incidental parameters. Focusing on these sophisticated data analysis techniques, this work presents robust and methodologically sound models for analyzing large and complex data sets-enabling readers to answer increasingly complex research questions. It applies
