This course introduces multilevel/mixed modeling for nested and longitudinal data and its implementation in Stata. Mixed models contain both fixed effects, analogous to regression coefficients, and random effects, effects that vary across clusters. Participants will learn how to use mixed models to answer research questions about the observation- and cluster-level data and how to disaggregate these effects. Introductory theory, estimation, model building, and diagnostics will be discussed and demonstrated through many examples.
Are you more interested in panel-data models with unobserved individual-level heterogeneity, endogenous variables, or lagged variables? Check out our Panel-data analysis using Stata course.

“The course was great—exactly what I was looking for. The instructor did an excellent job making difficult concepts easy to understand, showing us tricks in using Stata, and she also skillfully answered many difficult questions.”
