In analysis of longitudinal data, it is often assumed that observation times are predetermined and the same across study subjects. Such an assumption, however, is often violated in practice. For example, in a clinical study, subjects may miss scheduled visits and/or choose to make hospital visits at his/her own times. As a result, the visiting times may be highly irregular. It is well known that if the sampling scheme is correlated with the outcome values; then the usual statistical analysis may yield bias. For longitudinal data, a number of authors have studied the case of monotone missingness, cf. Wu and Carroll (1988), Follmann and Wu (1995), Hogan and Laird (1997), Scharfstein et al. (1999); Fitzmaurice et al. (2001), among others. In recent years, nonmonotone missingness has also received much attention. Troxel et al. (1998), Deltour et al. (1999) and Preisser et al. (2000) studied the intermittent missing in which the study subjects have a common set of possible visiting time points and they may miss some of them and come back in the later visits. To incorporate possibly subject-specific follow-up process, Lin and Ying (2001), Lin, Scharfstein and Rosenheck (2004) and Sun et al. (2005) proposed to use counting process to describe arbitrary and subject-specific visiting process. In this thesis, we extend the work of Lin and Ying (2001) and propose joint modeling and analysis of longitudinal data with possibly informative observation times via shared latent variables. A two-step estimation procedure is developed for parameter estimation. We show that the resulting estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal; and that the asymptotic variance can be consistently estimated using the bootstrap method. Numerical studies indicate that the proposed approach is appropriate for practical use.
