This workshop provides an introduction into analyzing nested data. Focusing specifically on multilevel regression, allows participants to explore the concepts of multilevel modeling within the widely used regression framework. We will cover introductory topics in multilevel modeling with continuous and categorical variables. Topics include:

  1. When multilevel analysis is necessary
  2. Random intercepts
  3. Random slopes and cross-level effects
  4. Interpreting multilevel analysis

Examples will be demonstrated using both the Mplus and R software packages. Syntax and output will be provided for all examples covered in the workshop.

Registration and payment can be made directly online. All prices are in Canadian dollars and are exclusive of tax (13%). We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Cheques and Email Transfers.

F.A.Q.

This workshop is for anyone interested in learning how to deal with clustered/nested data (ie: students nested within teachers) within a multilevel modeling framework.

Participants are encouraged to have a working knowledge of multiple regression and an advanced understanding of structural equation model (see our Advanced Structural Equation Modeling workshop).

A working knowledge of Mplus would be beneficial but not necessary.

A copy of Mplus or R is not required for this workshop. All examples For this workshop will be demonstrated with Mplus and R. Furthermore, we provide all syntax and output for each example to allow for participation without the use of any software.

Handout materials and datasets will be provided.
