Abstract
Liang & Zeger's generalized estimating equation approach for analysis of lo ngitudinal data is extended to marginal distributions of dispersion model t ype. This includes for example the von Mises and simplex distributions, sui table for angles and proportions, respectively. Both modelling of position and joint modelling of position and dispersion is considered, and the metho d is applied to a set of bird orientation data.
