GEE

 Consistent

Marginal mean, robust (sandwich, heteroscedasticity-consistent) SEs, semiparametric (only specify mean and var)
Estimation: IRLS, not likelihood-based
Population average
Missing completely at random, wgeesel for MAR
GOF: qic
Assumptions: linearity
Correct even if intraclass correlation wrong if no misspecification
Clusters: panel, only one

Trajectories: average

Assumptions:
1. The responses Y1,Y2,…,Yn are correlated or clustered
2. There is a linear relationship between the covariates and a transformation of the response, described by the link function g
3. Within-subject covariance has some structure (“working covariance”):
    independence (observations over time are independent)
    exchangeable (all observations over time have the same correlation)
    AR(1) (correlation decreases as a power of how many timepoints apart two observations are)
    unstructured (correlation between all timepoints may be different)
