 Selection model for informative longitudinal dropout

Model the joint distribution by multiplying a response model by a sequential dropout model. For example, the logit of dropout before visit $j$, conditional on remaining observed, can depend on the currently unobserved $Y_{ij}$ as well as previous responses and baseline covariates. The observed-data likelihood sums over the missing binary responses. Such a dependence parameter is usually weakly identified or unidentified from observed responses alone; sensitivity analysis must vary it over scientifically justified values.
