Description
This two-day course is designed to give participants an introduction to the theory and application of multilevel regression models for clustered or hierarchical data using the MLwiN statistical software package. We focus on two-level linear and logistic regression models for cross-sectional (individuals nested within groups) and longitudinal (repeated measures nested within individuals) data. The course consists of a 2:1 mix of lectures and “hands on” practical sessions using MLwiN. Each new modelling development is illustrated with real applications to social, behavioural and medical science data sets.
Learning Outcomes
An appreciation of the implications of ignoring clustered cross-sectional and longitudinal data structures in statistical modelling
An understanding of a range of multilevel regression models for analysing clustered and longitudinal data
Practice at estimating two-level linear and logistic regression models in MLwiN, and at interpreting and plotting the results
Topics Covered
Overwiew to multilevel modelling
Variance-component models
Random-intercepts models
?Within - and between - cluster effects of the covariates
?Three-level models
Random slope models
Growth-curve multilevel models for repeated measures longitudinal data
Multilevel logistic regression for binary response data
Resources continuing your multilevel modelling learning after the course
Who is this course for?
Applied quantitative researchers with an interest in the analysis of clustered cross-sectional and longitudinal data.
Requirements
The course will not assume a high level of statistical knowledge, but participants will be expected to have a good understanding and experience of applying and interpreting conventional linear and logistic regression models.
Delegates will need to download the latest version of MLwiN onto their laptop and use this for the course.
