- Title
An Introductory Primer on Multilevel and Hierarchical Linear Modeling.
- Authors
Roberts, J. Kyle
- Abstract
The article provides a brief primer and overview of multilevel and hierarchical linear modeling. The school-effects model with random effects is illustrated with a heuristic dataset. Finally, recommendations are presented for researchers studying learning disabilities who would like to utilize this methodology. The purpose of this paper is to provide a brief history and heuristic example of multilevel and hierarchical linear modeling. The purpose of this paper is not to provide an exhaustive description of the utility of multilevel models, but to simply illustrate the need for multilevel models and give a brief description of the basic principles behind the procedure. The history of multilevel modeling can be linked back to the seminal work of Robinson in recognizing contextual effects.
