Title: | A comparison of three random effects approaches to analyze repeated bounded outcome scores with an application in a stroke revalidation study | Authors: | Molas, Marek LESAFFRE, Emmanuel |
Issue Date: | 2008 | Publisher: | JOHN WILEY & SONS LTD | Source: | STATISTICS IN MEDICINE, 27(30). p. 6612-6633 | Abstract: | Discrete bounded outcome scores (BOS), i.e. discrete measurements that are restricted on a finite interval, often occur in practice. Examples are compliance measures, quality of life measures, etc. In this paper we examine three related random effects approaches to analyze longitudinal studies with a BOS as response: (1) a linear mixed effects (LM) model applied to a logistic transformed modified BOS; (2) a model assuming that the discrete BOS is a coarsened version of a latent random variable, which after a logistic-normal transformation, satisfies an LM model; and (3) a random effects probit model. We consider also the extension whereby the variability of the BOS is allowed to depend on covariates. The methods are contrasted using a simulation study and on a longitudinal project, which documents stroke rehabilitation in four European countries using measures of motor and functional recovery.
