What are the assumptions to be checked before multilevel data analysis???

06 June 2016 1 6K Report

What are the assumption to be tested before analyzing data for multi level analysis like HLM etc??

What is the intra-class correlation coefficient? What is the estimated between-cluster and within-cluster (or between- and within-level) variability in the data points? Do you have a suffient number of clusters/levels to justify a multi-level analysis? Or are there so few "levels" that you are better off simply adjusting for a dummy variable representing cluster or level?
