st: -xtmixed- Crossed effets & hierarchy

[Hobst <tobias.friedli@access.uzh.ch>]

I have estimated the following crossed random effects model:

xtmixed y x1 x2 x3 || _all: R.model || quarter: mle

this already worked pretty good.


Now, the models are nested within brands, so i would like to add one more
level to the model.

Is this right like this:

xtmixed y x1 x2 x3 || brand: || _all: R.model || quarter:, mle ??

The thing that confuses me is the need of the _all, R.. I dont really see
what that is used for. I followed the method presented in

Multilevel and Longitudunal Modeling Using Stata, Rabe-Hesketh & Skrondal,
Chapter 8

Thanks in advance for any review
