Dear R-helpers,

I'd like to use glmmPQL to predict binary responses based on a data.frame
data1
containing N entries (N<1000):


         target covariate1 covariate2  covariate3 ...    covariateM
cluster
134131        1 -0.30031885         0           0        -2.886870e-07

The responses are in column "target", and there are M covariates. All
observations
belong to cluster 1.

The data is to be modelled without fixed effects, i.e., a by a zero-mean
random effects model.
Additionally, the model is to be fed with a correlation structure
(to avoid double entries, a column x<-rnorm(nrow(data1),0,0.000001) is
appended):

correlation=corGaus(form=~covariate1 + covariate2 + ... +covariateM + x,
nugget=FALSE)

The data is visible to glmmPQL:

attach(data1)

Is
glmmPQLm<-glmmPQL(target~0,random=~1|cluster, data=data1,
correlation=corGaus(form=~covariate1 + covariate2 + ... +covariateM + x,
nugget=FALSE),
family="binomial") the right expression to fit the model ?


Thanks,
Don Muang
