Parameterization of Generalized Linear Mixed Models
PROC GLIMMIX constructs a generalized linear mixed model according to the specifications in the CLASS, MODEL, and RANDOM statements. Each effect in the MODEL statement generates one or more columns in the matrix 
, and each G-side effect in the RANDOM statement generates one or more columns in the matrix 
. R-side effects in the RANDOM statement do not generate model matrices; they serve only to index observations within subjects. This section shows how the
GLIMMIX procedure builds and . You can output the and matrices to a SAS data set with the OUTDESIGN= option in the PROC GLIMMIX statement.
The general rules and techniques for parameterization of a linear model are given in GLM Parameterization of Classification Variables and Effects of Chapter 19: Shared Concepts and Topics. The following paragraphs discuss how these rules differ in a mixed model, in particular, how parameterization differs between
the and the matrix.
