rlogis() in simulation
...te of a "school effect"
and a student-specific effect. The school effect is the variance term
common to all students in the school whereas the student effect varies
over N.
We want the variance of the school effect, e_gk, to be .25 and we want
the variance of the student-specific effect, e_gik, to be 1.7 - .25 =
1.45 so that the total variance sums to about 1.7.
Below is a self contained example of a small portion of the simulation.
However, I seem to misunderstand the scale and location parameters in
the rlogis function. Can anyone suggest how I might specify the variance
of the school...
