Dear John,

browsing to my edition of this book I could not find the respective
topic (R-square in multilevel models). Could you provide any more
detailed reference to the book?

Viele Grüße
Christian

Hi:

There should also be formulas for r-square, at level 1 and 2 are in:

Rabe-Hesketh, S., & Skrondal, A. (2008). Multilevel and Longitudinal
Modeling Using Stata. College Station, TX: Stata Press.

Best,
J.

Please assume xtmixed ,variance yields the following
result.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Random-effects Parameters | Estimate Std. Err. [95% Conf.
Interval]

-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Variable1: Identity |
var(_cons) | 100.000 70.000 54.22297 415.9787

-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------
Variable2: Identity |
var(_cons) | 10.0000 6.000 4.254477 36.79754

-----------------------------+---------------------------------------------
var(Residual) | 400.000 40.000 397.8473 465.2598

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is it 'correct' to conclude that this estimated model
yields a total variance of 510 (100+10+400) and
accordingly variable1 explains about 20% and variable
2% of the total model or is that a total
misinterpretation?
I once knew the answer, now I only know the reference:
chapter 7 of Tom Snijders and Roel Bosker (1999)
"Multilevel Analysis, An introduction to basic and
advanced multilevel modeling". Thousand Oaks: Sage.

Hope this is still of some help,
Maarten
