How do you include random effects in GENMOD? I don't see how you could do this, unless you are referring to the REPEATED statement used to create GEE models.
To implement my idea of looking at the information criteria, I think you will have to switch to GLIMMIX where you can specify random effects in a RANDOM statement. At this point, greater detail on the design used to collect the data, models considered, and the questions that the data are supposed to address would be in order to provide additional help.
