Hello Jay,
thanks for your fast answer.
I still read something about poisson/negative binomial regression analysis and the "poisson"/"nbreg"-commands in the Long book.
My problem is an adequate group comparision of coefficients (in different models; or with a pooled dataset using interactions of the group variable and all other independent variables).
I have three different studies and I want to compare the results between them.
I do not know any procedure which gives me unbiased estimates.
