Exponential family mixed models with random intercept generalized log-gamma

We present a class of exponential family (EF) mixed models in which the random intercept follows a generalized log-gamma (GLG) distribution. For specific hierarchical models and particular  parameter settings for the random intercept distribution, marginal models are derived in closed-form. An application with real data is given for illustration.
