Re: Regression with repeated measures

Hi Professor Granaas! The observations that your student is collecting is indeed a problem. Because they are correlated (being collected over time), the standard errors for the regression approach that he is planning to use are probably too low creating type I error problems. You shoul

Linear mixed models (aka multilelvel models, random coefficient models, etc) as implemented by many software products: SAS PROC MIXED, MIXREG, MLwiN, HLM, etc. You might want to look at some links on my website http://sites.netscape.net/segregorich/index.html Steve Gregorich >Obviously thes

FW: Regression with repeated measures

These both sound to me as if multi-level models would be appropriate to handle the type of data to which you are referring. Look at this site for some basic info on multi-level models (MLM): http://www.ioe.ac.uk/multilevel/ Interested in learning more... then dowload this classic text on ML

Re: Regression with repeated measures

I don't have an answer, but I'm very glad this question was asked because I'm having a similar problem. I have 14 grids, values from which are to be used as the dependent variable in a regression. Each 6x6 grid consists of 36 observation points. Their are some fairly strong spatial correlations

Re: basic stats question

Re probability/independence, I've found that the most effective way to communicate this concept to my students (College of Education, not heavily math-oriented) is the following: Consider the student population of your university.  Perhaps there is a fairly equal split of males and females in the

Re: Satterthwaite-newbie question

Wow. I'm impressed with this group's thoughtful responses both privately and on the server. Yes, Hayes calls this the Behrens-Fisher problem too. I was always taught to use equal n's and then the homogeneity of variance assumptions were not as big of an issue (the ttest post alluded to this to

Regression with repeated measures

I have a student coming in later to talk about a regression problem. Based on what he's told me so far he is going to be using predicting inter-response intervals to predict inter-stimulus intervals (or vice versa). What bothers me is that he will be collecting data from multiple trials for each

Re: Cronbach's alpha and sample size

i don't see a tradeoff between n for sample and k for # of items as being really THE or AN issue you don't really consider n for sample (though having larger is nicer) ... when you are contemplating the general size of the reliability coefficient you are targeting to that is ... you don't say

Cronbach's alpha and sample size

How is Cronbach's alpha affected by the sample size apart from questions related to generalizability issues? Ifind it hard to trace down the mathmatics related to this question clearly, and wether there migt be a trade off between N of Items and N of sujects (i.e. compensating for lack of subject
