Hi everyone,
I am wonder if i can use more than 1 dependent variable in the model statement of proc mixed? If so, how could i do that?
Thank you!!
From the PROC MIXED documentation:
MODEL dependent = <fixed-effects> </ options>;
It allows you to state a dependent (which is singular, in other words you can have only one) variable in the MODEL statement.
Google finds many answers however, this is just one answer found: https://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings/proceedings/sugi23/Stats/p229.pdf
Here's an example of PROC GLIMMIX with a bivariate outcome variable:
SAS/STAT® 15.2 User's Guide
The GLIMMIX Procedure
Example 51.5 Joint Modeling of Binary and Count Data
https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/statug/15.2/statug_glimmix_examples08.htm
You can also do joint models for longitudinal and time-to-event (survival) data.
You can google and you will find material from the Belgian bio-stat professors Geert Verbeke and Geert Molenberghs (and some of their PhD students).
