[PDF][PDF] A non-random dropout model for analyzing longitudinal skew-normal response

In this paper, multivariate skew-normal distribution is employed for analyzing an outcome
based dropout model for repeated measurements with non-random dropout in skew
regression data sets. A probit regression is considered as the conditional probability of an
observation to be missing given outcomes. A simulation study of using the proposed
methodology and comparing it with a semi-parametric method, GEE, is provided. The
standardized bias is used for comparison of different approaches. Furthermore, for …
Abstract
In this paper, multivariate skew-normal distribution is employed for analyzing an outcome based dropout model for repeated measurements with non-random dropout in skew regression data sets. A probit regression is considered as the conditional probability of an observation to be missing given outcomes. A simulation study of using the proposed methodology and comparing it with a semi-parametric method, GEE, is provided. The standardized bias is used for comparison of different approaches. Furthermore, for investigation of efficiency of the methodology two applications are analyzed where observed information matrix is used to find the variances of the parameter estimates.
