Abstract: Abstract A general family of multivariate distributions for repeated measures can be obtained by applying the Laplace transform of a gamma distribution to the integrated intensity function of any continuous distribution on the positive real line. Both clustering and serial dependence can be handled. The response variable may be counts, durations between events, or any continuous positive-valued measurements.
