14 Section 14. Notes on ‘Ch 15. Hierarchical linear models’

2021-12-09

These are just notes on a single chapter of BDA3 that were not part of the course. Also, these notes are rather sparse because I have a bit of experience with these models already.

14.1 Chapter 15. Hierarchical linear models

  • “Hierarchical regression models are useful as soon as there are predictors at different levels of variation” (pg 381)
    • or for data obtained by stratified/clustered sampling
  • general recommendation to start simple and build up the model’s complexity
