Thank you all for your feedback. I have one additional question re: this topic. 

I have created my propensity score weights using logistic regression. The variable name is psb. However, when I add pweight (psb) to my model, it does not read the probability weights. How do I create these so that gllamm will use my weights?

Thanks,
traci

Yet, when I try to run the model using mi estimate: (to account for the imputed data), I receive a message saying that mi estimate is not supported with gllamm. Does anyone have suggestions for how to handle this?

So you are trying to combine propensity scores with a multilevel model
with multiple imputation? If I were in a positive mood, I would say
that that is very brave. I am not, so I will say that I would not try
to combine that many techniques. Who knows what the properties of such
a combined estimator are? Each of them are reasonable approximations
of the thing they want to measure, but that does not mean that the
same is true for the combined estimator. At the very least you are
collecting an awful lot of assumptions with such a combined model.

Hope this is not too depressing,
Maarten
