BookDOI
Multilevel Analysis : Techniques and Applications, Second Edition
TL;DR: In this paper, a practical introduction to multilevel regression models and structural equation models is provided, along with examples from various disciplines, including psychology, education, sociology, the health sciences, and business.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stepped wedge designs could reduce the required sample size in cluster randomized trials

TL;DR: A design effect (sample size correction factor) is derived that can be used to estimate the required sample size for stepped wedge designs and is far more efficient than the parallel group and ANCOVA design in terms of sample size.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Consequence of Ignoring a Level of Nesting in Multilevel Analysis.
TL;DR: In this article a three level model with one predictor variable is used as a reference model and the top or intermediate level is ignored in the data analysis, showing that this has an effect on the estimated variance components and that standard errors of regression coefficients estimators may be overestimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison between traditional methods and multilevel regression for the analysis of multicenter intervention studies.
TL;DR: It is shown that the treatment effect and especially its standard error are generally incorrectly estimated by the traditional methods, which should not in general be used as an alternative to multilevel regression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design issues for experiments in multilevel populations
TL;DR: In this paper, for populations with two or three levels of nesting and contitmous outcomes, the estimator of the regressiot, coefficient associated with treatment condition, a parameter assumed to bej~Lred in this paper; is of main interest and should be estimated as efficiently as possible.
