Description:

The aim of this module is to introduce how to analyse data that has a multi-level, hierarchical structure. The mathematical form of multilevel models is described. The models are developed first for continuous outcomes moving from linear regression to the random intercept model to the random coefficient model. Multilevel models are then shown for binary and other outcomes. Software implementation is described with the lme4 package in R. Some use of MLwiN is also made.
