Abstract

In many longitudinal studies multiple characteristics of each individual, along with time to occurrence of an event of interest, are often collected. In such data set, some of the correlated characteristics may be discrete and some of them may be continuous. In this paper, a joint model for analysing multivariate longitudinal data comprising mixed continuous and ordinal responses and a time to event variable is proposed. We model the association structure between longitudinal mixed data and time to event data using a multivariate zero-mean Gaussian process. For modeling discrete ordinal data we assume a continuous latent variable follows the logistic distribution and for continuous data a Gaussian mixed effects model is used. For the event time variable, an accelerated failure time model is considered under different distributional assumptions. For parameter estimation, a Bayesian approach using Markov Chain Monte Carlo is adopted. The performance of the proposed methods is illustrated using some simulation studies. A real data set is also analyzed, where different model structures are used. Model comparison is performed using a variety of statistical criteria.
