Leny, that's not exactly the information I asked for, but there is probably nothing wrong with your result. If you have at least 2 time points per case, then a line can be estimated within each. Therefore all 80 cases will be utilized in the analysis.

Sorry about that Steve, SE of the coefficient. Time is in weeks and is
used as continuous in the model. The average at T1 is 10 weeks, T2 is
20 weeks and T3 is 29.7 weeks.

Leny, "standard error" of what? Please follow the Statalist FAQ (section
3.3) and "Say exactly what you typed and exactly what Stata typed (or did)
in response. N.B. exactly!" Are the time-points equally spaced? If so, and
you are estimating the slope, then the middle time point would be ignored.

Dear Statalisters,
I'm using a GLM model with robust cluster
option to model longitudinal data across three time points. I have the
dependent variable on 80 cases at T1 and T2, but have only 77 at the
third time point. When I run the model the number of observations is
237, but it says that the standard error is adjusted for 80 clusters.
Why would this be the case? How does stata take the missing info for
the 3 people at T3 into consideration when it calculates the
parameters and SE?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Leny
