We reran the main generalized
estimating equations model for a subsample of women who underwent screening for gestational diabetes mellitus at Mount Sinai Hospital.
Internalising and externalising behaviour was related to father involvement in crude and adjusted logistic regression and generalised
estimating equation models.

We built a generalized
estimating equation (GEE) general linear
model (GLM) with outcome as the dependent variable; time in the nursing box, licking / grooming per puppy, vertical nursing per puppy, and ventral nursing per puppy were entered as predictors with breed, maternal parity, sex of puppy, and age at return entered as covariates.
In contrast with ACR's 2010 methodology for N2O Emissions Reductions from Changes in Fertilizer Management, which incorporates site specific data into a peer - reviewed, tested and highly parameterized computer
model to calculate N2O emission reductions resulting from changes in how fertilizer is applied and used, the MSU - EPRI methodology is based on empirical
equations and NCR data to set conservative
estimates for emission reductions.
For a climate
model that has some correlation with the past data the
model estimates should be converted into a recalibrated
estimate using the regression
equation.
All three scenarios are assessed using MDM - E3, a macro-econometric
model that applies economic (national) accounting identities and empirically
estimated equations to
model interactions between the UK economy, energy system and the environment.
Climate
models are amalgams of fundamental physics, approximations to well - known
equations, and empirical
estimates (known as parameterizations) of processes that either can't be resolved (because they happen on too small a physical scale) or that are only poorly constrained from data.
Changes in rates of child diagnoses from baseline to 3 months as a function of mother's remission and subsequently mother's level of response were analyzed using a repeated measures analysis with binary response data, using generalized
estimating equation (GEE) methods.27 A linear probability
model with an identity link function (rather than a logit - link function) was used to
model interactions on the additive scale28 and to
model a dose - response function using rates (rather than odds) as the outcome measure because we considered risk differences to be a more relevant measure than odds ratios in our study.
The results of mediation analysis using structural
equation modeling showed that maternal problems in reciprocal social behavior directly increased infantile aggression (
estimate = 0.100, 95 % CI [0.011, 0.186]-RRB-, and indirectly increased infantile aggression via maternal postpartum depressive symptoms (
estimate = 0.027, 95 % CI [0.010, 0.054]-RRB-, even after controlling for covariates.
For all
models, logistic regression was undertaken within the generalised
estimating equations framework to account for the correlations within a family.
Individually significant coefficients were interpreted only if the
equation in which they were
estimated was significant as a whole in a multivariate test, an approach that minimizes the problem of false positives due to multiple comparisons while avoiding the problem of low power to detect true associations of moderate magnitude that is introduced by more conservative methods (eg, Bonferroni corrections).33
Model comparisons were made using the Akaike information criterion.34
This
model was fitted by using population - averaged Generalized
Estimating Equation methods.
Risk factors associated with these rates were analyzed using generalized
estimating equations with a Poisson
model.
To do this, we repeated the previous analyses except we also entered the dummy code indicating whether wives were using HCs at relationship formation to account for variance in the intercept and current HC status slope
estimates in the second level of the
model to create the current HC status × HC status at relationship formation interaction with the following
equation (Eq.
Marginal logistic regression
models were fitted for repeated - measures data (eg, well - child visits) using generalized
estimating equations with working - independence covariance structures.28
The data was analyzed using generalized linear
models and generalized
estimating equations, which are specifically used to address the multilevel design of data in which schools with participating schoolchildren were randomized (rather than individual participants).
Multiple - group
models estimated in structural
equation modeling suggested that youth who were higher in social anxiety or coping efficacy problems were more likely to transmit emotional reactivity developed in the family - of - origin to emotional reactivity in response to conflict in close friendships.
Method: We used a new ACE structural
equation model to
estimate heritability from a case - control family study of BED conducted in the Boston area.
Such an approach is ideal for examining mediation
models that include repeated measures, and given that the
model is
estimated in a single
equation, one can directly
estimate the covariance of the random effects that are encompassed in different Level 1 and Level 2
models.
Hypotheses were tested using structural
equation modeling with a latent variable interaction
estimated in Mplus version 7.3 (Muthén and Muthén 1998 — 2012).
Fifth, we
estimated the path
model presented in Figure 1 using structural
equation modeling.
Because of skewness and the ordered categorical nature of our variables, we
estimated α within a structural
equation model framework, which resulted in higher α coefficients.20 Our ω reliability analyses yielded results consistent with previous studies reporting ω reliabilities for preschool and school - age SDQs.9, 16
A cumulative logit function was used to
estimate the
model parameters via the generalized
estimating equations.31 The dependence of responses within clusters was specified using an exchangable working correlation structure.
Generalized
estimating equations (GEE)
models showed small, but significant positive treatment effects on parental self - efficacy, and marginally significant effects on social support, and knowledge on child rearing.
A series of generalized
estimating equation (GEE)
models were used to examine proposed relations.
Our data were analyzed using the Generalized
Estimating Equations (GEE) approach because this extension of the General Linear
Model can empirically account for both positive and negative correlations of the observations within couples.

estimate the pathways between maternal symptoms of anxiety and depression and child nocturnal awakenings via structural
equation modeling using a sibling design.
