Dear Chris,
Thanks for your reply. I did know about the difference in the xtmixed and MLwiN reporting. Your code did however help me anyway because it made me realise that I (embarrassingly) had overlooked that the constant term needs be included explicitly in the code!

Thanks,
Kjetil

Dear all,
I am using runmlwin to estimate a simple 2-level linear random intercept model. While the Stata commands xtreg and xtmixed produce comparable results, the MlwiN results differ dramatically. Compared to the Stata results the fixed effects are similar, but the coefficients for the level2 ...

Many thanks Lydia,
The variance changes, but only a tiny bit. The same model (individual covariates, one level 2 covariate and a cross-level interaction term) ran in gllamm and in MLwiN still produces very different level two variances, .142(.048) and .017(.042) respctively. The coefficients, though ...

Dear all,
I am running a two-level logistic regression (random intercept model) in MLwiN and got basically the same results as in gllamm (stata), except the level 2 variance (the U-part) that came out zero in MLwiN (indicating no level two-variance, and hence nothing to explain?). Gllamm reported a ...
