Multivariate linear mixed models for multiple outcomes.
We propose a multivariate linear mixed (MLMM) for the analysis of multiple outcomes, which generalizes the latent variable model of Sammel and Ryan. The proposed model assumes a flexible correlation structure among the multiple outcomes, and allows a global test of the impact of exposure across outcomes. In contrast to the Sammel-Ryan model, the MLMM separates the mean and correlation parameter...
متن کاملStudying Multivariate Change Using Multilevel Models and Latent Curve Models.
In longitudinal research investigators often measure multiple variables at multiple points in time and are interested in investigating individual differences in patterns of change on those variables. In the vast majority of applications, researchers focus on studying change in one variable at a time. In this article we consider methods for studying relations1.1ips between patterns of change on ...
متن کاملUsing multilevel analysis in patient and organizational outcomes research.
BACKGROUND Outcomes research often compares patient and organizational outcomes across institutions, dealing with variables measured at different hierarchical levels. A traditional approach to analyzing multilevel data has been to aggregate individual-level variables at the institutional level. OBJECTIVES To introduce the conceptual and statistical background of multilevel analysis and provid...
متن کاملAnalyzing Multilevel Models with the GLIMMIX Procedure
Hierarchical data are common in many fields, from pharmaceuticals to agriculture to sociology. As data sizes and sources grow, information is likely to be observed on nested units at multiple levels, calling for the multilevel modeling approach. This paper describes how to use the GLIMMIX procedure in SAS/STAT® to analyze hierarchical data that have a wide variety of distributions. Examples are...
متن کاملMultilevel models with multivariate mixed response types
We build upon the existing literature to formulate a class of models for multivariate mixtures of Gaussian, ordered or unordered categorical responses and continuous distributions that are not Gaussian, each of which can be defined at any level of a multilevel data hierarchy. We describe a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for fitting such models. We show how this unifies a number of disparate...
