After my meeting, I’m going to work on two things. Getting my tech report into a paper form to submit to either Psychometrika, JEBS, etc. If we can get a great data set, maybe even JASA. I guess it’ll depend … Continue reading
I need to return to my blog because I need a place to organize my progress on the many different projects I’m working on. (1) A paper comparing the HLSM with the multilevel p2 model. (2) Bullying data (see below) … Continue reading
Power Analysis – the plan is to continue in the literature search to find tools that can help. So far, very little is out there to help. A few things to note: Cross-classified models what I’ve found so far use … Continue reading
It’s official, the post-doc has begun. Plans for the next few months: Continue power work Fit multilevel p2 models Spillane data Bullying Prevention data Spend 1 morning a week thinking about incorporating social networks as a covariate. Power Analysis Write … Continue reading
Very productive meeting = I have a busy week of work! Literature Review 1 – Look into power analysis work for cross-classified models. Since these are similar to p1 models, maybe there’s something there about adapting them. 2 – Look … Continue reading
So the blog has taken a backseat for the past month since I’ve been focusing on my “theoretical chapter”. My quest in putting together power analyses for HLSMs has taken me in a few areas. (1) Looking at the biostats … Continue reading

Mid-February already! Topics to discuss at our meeting: (1) Reviews from the JEBS paper. (2) Comments on the MM paper. (3) Copyright form that I need to complete. (4) Chugging away at power.
A heat map comparison of a strong and less strong prior. Still waiting on the weak prior results. ColorSchools1-4 ColorSchools5-8 ColorSchools9-12 ColorSchools13-16 ColorSchools17-20 A now (finally) preliminary results from my covariate sampler. Note: theB matrix has been entirely reparameterized … Continue reading
Things to do following my meeting: (1) Observation Simulations lead us to some questions/ideas: We see that the parameters are high prior driven. And in actually we see an interaction between sample size and block structure in that a larger … Continue reading
