Re: st: 95%CrI

[Dirk Enzmann <dirk.enzmann@uni-hamburg.de>]

Presumably, Srinivas refers to the credible (confidence) intervall of 
the MOR as discussed in Merlo et al. (2006), see
http://www.stata.com/statalist/archive/2011-05/msg00670.html

As far as I know, this is not (yet) possible using Stata. When asking 
Juan Merlo directly, his answer was:
"The 95% credible interval is based on the Bayesian MCMC estimation. You 
use the extreme 2.5% of the posterior distribution of the second level 
variance and calculate the MOR for these limits. This is easy to obtain 
in MLwiN and I think now you can run the MLwiN within STATA. Hope my 
explanation helps you."
See also -findit runmlwin- .

Surely, there is an absurdity to run a multilevel model using Stata, run 
an .ado-file (see -findit xtmrho-) to calculate the MOR, and then run 
the same model again in MLwiN to obtain its 95% credibility interval.
