similar to: Reshaping data from wide to tall format for multilevel modeling

I am trying to plot an interaction in a multilevel model. Here is some sample data. In the following example, it is longitudinal (i.e., repeated measures), so the outcome, score (at each of the three time points), is nested within the individual. I am interested in the interaction between gender and happiness predicting score. id <- c(1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3) age <-

I''m trying to get data in rows instead of columns by default. The default scaffold behavior is to create an initial table layout with column headers along the top. In some cases this creates really wide tables which require horizontal scrolling. Is there a parameter I can use with scaffolding or a hack to get the header cells along the left side of the table instead? I''m

I am using a multilevel modeling approach to model change in a person's symptom score over time (i.e., longitudinal individual growth models). I have been using the lme function in the multilevel package for the analyses, but my problem is that my outcome (symptoms) and one of my predictors (events) are count data, and are non-normal. Do you have any suggestions for how to deal with them?

I am fitting individual growth models using nlme (multilevel models with repeated measurements nested within the individual), and I am trying to calculate the Pseudo R-squared for the models (an overall summary of the total outcome variability explained). Singer and Willett (2003) recommend calculating Pseudo R-squared in multilevel modeling by squaring the sample correlation between observed and

Hello all, My question is how do I write a multilevel regression model of individual responses to environmental predictors that accounts for social interactions between individuals. i.e.; 1) Individual response is nested within a group response. 2) The same environmental predictors apply to both hierarchical levels but, 3) Lower level slope/intercept are also affected by high-level response.

Hi R folks (Dr. Bates in particular), In August 2005, Dr. Bates mentioned that the documentation for lme4 "will be in the form of a book with the working title 'Multilevel Modeling in R'" and I'm just wondering if there is an estimated date of publication or if it's still a long way off. The Rnews article does a great job of introducing the package, but I'm

Hi, I'm trying to perform a power simulation for a simple multilevel model, using the function glmmPQL in R version 2.8.1. I want to extract the p-value for the fixed-effects portion of the regression, but I'm having trouble doing that. I can extract the coefficients (summary(fit)$coeff), and the covariance matrix (summary(fit)$varFix), but I can't grab the p-value (or the

We will present a workshop on "Multilevel Modeling in R" June 18-19, 2003 in Madison, WI, USA. Details are available at http://www.stat.wisc.edu/shortcourse/Rworkshop.html

Dear All, I use R to conduct multilevel modeling. However, I have a problem about the interpretation of random effect. Unlike the variables in fixed effects, the variables in random effects have not shown the p-value, so I don't know whether they are significant or not? I want to obtain this figure to make the decision. Thanks a lot! Below is the syntax and output of my program:

I am trying to reshape a data set. Could someone please help me with the reshape, cast, and melt functions? I am new to R and I have tried reading up on how to use the reshape package, but I am very confused. Here is an example of what I am trying to do: subject coder score time [1,] 1 1 20 5 [2,] 1 2 30 4 [3,] 2 3 10 10 [4,] 2 2

Hello all: I've read the document named "A Brief Introduction to R, the multilevel package and the nlme package". At p68, one can transform the dataset to the required format by using "make.univ". I wanna know,how the new variable "MULTDV" is calculated(can you show me the formula if possible please?)?And what's the usage of this new variable in the following

Hello everyone, I am employing the waba method from the multilevel package for obtaining a within-group correlation (Description: http://bg9.imslab.co.jp/Rhelp/R-2.4.0/src/library/multilevel/man/waba.html). Does anybody know a way or a calculation for obtaining a significance value for that correlation? And another question: Does anybody know whether it is possible to save individual

I'm fitting a lme growth curve model with two predictors and their interaction as predictors. The multilevel model is nested so that level 1 is time within the individual, and level 2 is the individual. I would like to plot the mean group-level trajectories at plus and minus 1 SD from the mean of the main effects composing the interaction term. Thus, the plot should have 4 lines (mean

Hi, I am trying to run a multilevel model with time nested in people and people nested in dyads (3 levels of nesting) by initially running a series of models to test whether the slope/intercept should be fixed or random. The problem that I am experiencing appears to arise between the random intercept, fixed slope equation AND. (syntax: rint<-lme(BDIAFTER~BDI+WEEK+CORUMTO,

Dear All, does anybody know of a package (working under Linux) for multilevel IRT modelling? I'd love to do this without having to go on WINSTEPS or the like.. thanks for the attention!

It is not a pure R question,but I hope some one can give me advices. I want to use analysis my data with the multilevel model.The data has 2 levels---- the second level has 52 units and each second level unit has 19-23 units.I think the sample size is quite small,but just now I can't make the sample size much bigger.So I want to ask if I use the multilevel model to analysis the data set,will

Dear all, I posted this two years ago, getting no answers or suggestions - now I am trying again, hoping something new is available in R. I am interested in an application of linear multilevel model with unequal selection probabilities at both levels. Do you know if there is an R function for multilevel pseudo-maximum likelihood estimation? Or is it possible to obtain these estimates using

Dear list, Is there any one use MICE package deal with multilevel missing values here? I have a question about the 2lonly.pmm() and 2lonly.norm(), I get the following error quite often. Here is the code the error, could you give me some advice please? Am I using it in the right way? > ini=mice(bhrm,maxit=0) > pred=ini$pred > pred V1 V2 V3 V4 V5 V6 V7 V8 V9 V10 V11 V12 V13 V14 V15

Dear all, I am struggling with a problem which I have been reading on the forums about and it did not seem to me that there is a precise answer to my question. However, I still hope there is one. I am working with http://timss.bc.edu/ PIRLS data and trying to conduct multilevel analysis. There are different weights for each level of analysis in the PIRLS dataset (e.g. there is a school
