Longitudinal data analysis using generalized linear models

TL;DR: In this article, an extension of generalized linear models to the analysis of longitudinal data is proposed, which gives consistent estimates of the regression parameters and of their variance under mild assumptions about the time dependence.

Models for longitudinal data: a generalized estimating equation approach.

TL;DR: This article discusses extensions of generalized linear models for the analysis of longitudinal data in which heterogeneity in regression parameters is explicitly modelled and uses a generalized estimating equation approach to fit both classes of models for discrete and continuous outcomes.

Health and Behavioral Consequences of Binge Drinking in College: A National Survey of Students at 140 Campuses

TL;DR: Binge drinking is widespread on college campuses and programs aimed at reducing this problem should focus on frequent binge drinkers, refer them to treatment or educational programs, and emphasize the harm they cause for students who are not binge drinkers.

A Gender-Specific Measure of Binge Drinking among College Students
