Hello,

GEE can model non-normally distributed outcomes, like your 0-8 score, effectively handling repeated measures or longitudinal data.

Hope this helps.

Satyendra Nath Chakrabartty

I will suggest to convert raw scores to normally distributed scores. Please see Chakrabartty, Satyendra Nath (2021): Integration of various scales for Measurement of Insomnia. Research Methods in Medicine & Health Sciences, 2(3), 102-111, 10.1177/26320843211010044
