4 Multilevel structures and classifications (watch video introduction)

5 Introduction to multilevel modelling

Regression models for binary responses

Single-level and multilevel models for ordinal responses

Single-level and multilevel models for nominal responses

Three-level multilevel models

Cross-classified multilevel models

Multiple membership multilevel models

Missing Data
