Course Content This four-day course will explain the basic concepts of mixed models. It is an applied course, so the emphasis lies on the interpretation of the results from the mixed model analyses and not on the mathematical background. The course centres on the two most important applications of mixed models – multilevel analysis and longitudinal data analysis. Lectures are given in the morning and in the afternoon a computer practical is given using the statistical programs STATA, SPSS and MLwiN.
Learning objectives, training objectives For example:
The student understands the role of mixed model analysis in analysing longitudinal data
The student understands how alternative models can be used to answer specific research questions
Target Audience The course is designed for researchers who work with mixed model analysis or researchers who plan to work with mixed model analysis. It is an applied course, so the mathematics behind the mixed model analysis is not discussed in detail.
Notes On the first day of the course you will receive a course pack containing copies of all lectures, presentations and assignments. We use an interactive Learn Management System.
