Dear all,

Would anyone suggest general multivariate models for two or more
strongly correlated (paired) dependent variables,

    - when they may have different probability distribution (not
necessarily though),

    - the nature of the correlation may be more complex (than a linear
correlation), and

    - they may have a common set of explanatory variables, while each
response variable may have its own independent covariates (not
necessarily though).

Additionally, if the two responses are not paired initially, but there
is/are a common covariate or two, is it a common practice to match the
responses according to  those common covariates?

Or does anyone can comment on the curds and whey method (Breiman and
Friedman), related to the above issues?

I will greatly appreciate any directly relevant comments, suggestions,
even some references.

Sincerely,
In-Sun
