Random Coefficient Models for Multilevel Analysis

Jan De Leeuw and Ita Kreft

Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 1986, vol. 11, issue 1, pages 57-85

Abstract: We propose a possible statistical model for both contextual analysis and slopes as outcomes analysis. These techniques have been used in multilevel analysis for quite some time, but a precise specification of the regression models has not been given before. We formalize them by proposing a random coefficient regression model, and we investigate its statistical properties in some detail. Various estimation methods are reviewed and applied to Dutch school-career example.
