Apr 4, 2020 at 18:49 | comment | added | EdM | @student_R123 the paper dealt with up to 4 measurements over time, so a first-stage modeling of phthalate values over time was needed to get slopes and intercepts to test, in the second-stage model, whether changes over time were associated with outcome. With only 2 measurements you can go directly to a single model incorporating the continuous predictor, say, as (1) its mean value and (2) its difference. For the binary categorical (say, T/F), try a single 4-level categorical: both T, both F, T->F, F->T. Not sure that a random-effect model, with its added assumptions, would help more. | |
