In this article, we describe a new software for modeling correlated binary data based on orthogonalized residuals (Zink and Qaqish, 2009), a recently developed estimating equations approach that includes, as a special case, alternating logistic regressions (Carey et al., 1993). The software is...

Deletion diagnostics are introduced for the regression analysis of clustered binary outcomes estimated with alternating logistic regressions, an implementation of generalized estimating equations (GEE) that estimates regression coefficients in a marginal mean model and in a model for the...

Classical methods for fitting a varying intercept logistic regression model to stratified data are based on the conditional likelihood principle to eliminate the stratum-specific nuisance parameters. When the outcome variable has multiple ordered categories, a natural choice for the outcome...
