BACKGROUND: Over time, adaptive Gaussian Hermite quadrature (QUAD) has become the preferred method for estimating generalized linear mixed models with binary outcomes. However, penalized quasi-likelihood (PQL) is still used frequently. In this work,

Estimating causal exposure effects in observational studies ideally requires the analyst to have a vast knowledge of the domain of application. Investigators often bypass difficulties related to the identification and selection of confounders through

Marginal structural models are commonly used to estimate the causal effect of a time-varying treatment in presence of time-dependent confounding. When fitting an MSM to data, the analyst must specify both the structural model for the outcome and the

Alternating logistic regressions (ALRs) seem to offer some of the advantages of marginal models estimated via generalized estimating equations (GEE) and generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs). Via simulation study we compared ALRs to marginal models

The effect of the prior distribution of the outcome and exposure models' covariate inclusion indicators in the Bayesian Adjustment for Confounding (BAC) algorithm is studied. The investigative approach is to analytically describe the posterior probab

Estimating causal effects requires important prior subject-matter knowledge and, sometimes, sophisticated statistical tools. The latter is especially true when targeting the causal effect of a time-varying exposure in a longitudinal study. Marginal s

We investigate Bayesian optimal designs for changepoint problems. We find robust optimal designs which allow for arbitrary distributions before and after the change, arbitrary prior densities on the parameters before and after the change, and any log

We show that an often-used Bayesian optimal design criterion function fits into a standard decision theoretic framework. This suggests a sensible two-stage decision theoretic approach whereby this criterion function is also used for inference once it
