Hi, Does anyone know how to use population at the unit of analysis (e.g., population within each county of Connecticut) as weights in Poisson regression with an exposure variable (i.e., population of each county itself)? I wanted to simply use analytic weights but Poisson doesn't allow it due to its non-linear functional form. Anyone knows how to deal with this or knows any paper along this line? I would very much appreciate any input!
