Hi George,

Thanks a lot for your reply! Can I also double-check what you mean by "You can always manipulate the parameter estimates to get different log-odds contrasts if they are of interest" - how could I achieve that?

Thanks again,
Francesca

Hi George,

Thank you very much for your reply - it is really helpful.

I was hoping you could comment on my second query - apologies if this is a very basic question:

Brilliant - thank you very much!

hi George,

I had a close look at your example dataset and script and realised what is causing the problem in my dataset. In your example the student ID codes (level 1) go from 1 to n for each school (level 2) whereas my ID codes go from 1 to 500 counting the overall sample rather than for each ...

Thanks again for your reply - I will have a play with your code and apply it to my data.

Thanks again!
