Hello, I am running the program COMPAR.GEE within the package APE. My dependent variable is binomial, while my independent variable is a multi-state categorical variable. The output reports an estimate for each state of the independent variable except the first one. For example, for the variable X with 3 states, the output is:
intercept (estimate) X2 (estimate) X3 (estimate) I have two questions: 1) Why does it not give me an intercept for the first variable and how do i get it; 2) can a get a general estimate of correlation, like a wald's statistic for the variable? Thank you! Charlie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Charles G.
