Copula additive distributional regression enables the joint modeling of multiple outcomes, an essential aspect of many real-world research problems. This book provides an accessible overview of this modeling approach, with a particular focus on its implementation in the GJRM R package, developed by the authors. The emphasis is on bivariate responses with empirical illustrations drawn from diverse fields such as health and medicine, epidemiology, economics and social sciences.

Key Features:

This book is designed for graduate students, researchers, practitioners and analysts who are interested in using copula additive distributional regression for the joint modeling of bivariate outcomes. The methodology is accessible to readers with a basic understanding of core statistics and probability, regression, copula modeling and R.
