HI,

Just to add:
fit3<-geese(hibp~MaternalAge*time,id=CODEA,data=BP.stack5,family=binomial,corstr="exch",scale.fix=TRUE) #works
 summary(fit3)$mean["p"]
#                             p

#MaternalAge4        0.49099242
#MaternalAge5        0.04686295
#time21              0.86164351
#MaternalAge4:time21 0.59258221
#MaternalAge5:time21 0.79909832

fit4<-geese(hibp~MaternalAge*time,id=CODEA,data=BP.stack5,family=binomial,corstr="unstructured",scale.fix=TRUE)  #when the correlation structure is changed to "unstructured"
#Error in `contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isOF[nn]]) : 
 # contrasts can be applied only to factors with 2 or more levels
#In addition: Warning message:
#In is.na(rows) : is.na() applied to non-(list or vector) of type 'NULL'


Though, it works with data(Ohio)

fit1<-geese(resp~age+smoke+age:smoke,id=id,data=ohio1,family=binomial,corstr="unstructured",scale.fix=TRUE)
 summary(fit1)$mean["p"]

It works also with corstr="ar1".   Why do you gave the option "unstructured"?

Hi A.K

Below is the comment I get, not sure why.

BP.sub3 is the stacked data without the missing values.

BP.geese3 <- geese(HiBP~time*MaternalAge,data=BP.sub3,id=CODEA,
family=binomial, corstr="unstructured", na.action=na.omit)Error in
`contrasts<-`(`*tmp*`, value = contr.funs[1 + isOF[nn]]) :
  contrasts can be applied only to factors with 2 or more levels

Even though age has 3 levels; time has 14 years & 21 years; HIBP is a
binary response outcome.

2) When you mentioned summary(m1)$mean["p"] what did the p mean? i
used this in one of the gee command, it produced NA as answer?

Many thanks
