Please write back to SAS-L first and explain what your data are, and where they come from, and how they were collected, and what you want to do with them, and what the project goals are. Then people here can give more helpful suggestions. HTH, David -- David L. Cassell mathematical statistician Design Pathways 3115 NW Norwood Pl.

Join the i'm Initiative. Help make a difference today.http://im.live.com/messenger/im/home/?source=TAGHM_APR07 Don't mean to hijack your thread, but I was actually wondering about this myself the other day. Zero-inflated Poisson exists, does zero- inflated NegBin? If so, how so in SAS? i have used PROC GENMOD for negbin GLM with offset before. In wildlife studies we often examine habitat selection - i.e., resource selection functions that are often modeled with logistic regression as 'used' vs either 'unused' or 'available'. Those last 2 words carry a lot of baggage that we need not get into. Anyhow, sometimes the study area is broken into small plots using GIS or some other means. With new satellite and GPS technologies for tracking animals - you could end up with some used plots having 10, 20, 50, etc animal locations. A situation where the variance becomes much larger than the mean b/c you typically have many many more plots with zero uses - hence, a zero-inflated negative binomial? Also, you can use mixed models to deal with dependency of observations in order to separate individualistic effects vs population level effects. thanks. Shawn H

Thanks. I needed that. :-) The place to look is in the SAS-L archives. Look up Dale McLerran's tomes on PROC NLMIXED for ZIP and ZINB models. Oh, and when you do, don't look for his name in the 'author' box, because he uses the 'from' name stringplayer2 . HTH, David -- David L.

Try Flexicon.http://games.msn.com/en/flexicon/default.htm?icid=flexicon_hmemailtag...- Hide quoted text - > > - Show quoted text - David, thanks for the tip, I'll check it out. The situation I gave was pretty particular b/c it was on my mind at the time. However, a ZINB model may actually be fairly common for a lot of wildife surveys. The reason is that many wildlife species are gregarious but not terribly common. Say you want to model factors affecting duck use of ponds. You visit 30 ponds and find no ducks, but when you do find a pond with ducks there might be 50, 500, or 1000. You might standardize the model by using pond area as an offset to get density but that is another matter. Anyhow, thanks for the help. Shawn Haskell Texas Tech Univ PhD candidate, Wildlife Science |
