Hello:

I am trying to run REALCOM-IMPUTE but I keep getting an error message "The program can't start because mclmcrrt710.dll is missing from your computer. I assume that this is because I installed the wrong version of MATLAB runtime. I installed the R2012b Windows 32-bit version MATLAB runtime as ...

That is what I had done originally. It does give reasonable results. The only problem is that when I set up the multiple membership model in the classification window and click done, I get a pop-up window that says "multiple membership column wrong length(XCLA)". If I click OK for that pop-up and ...

I tried this but the results don't look right. When I fit a univariate multiple membership model for reading I get a 3rd level variance component of 10.436.

When I fit a multivariate multiple membership model for reading and math I get a 3rd level variance component of 5.676. In both cases I have a ...

Hello:

I am attempting to fit a multivariate multiple membership models. I am following the same procedures as for a univariate multiple membership model with weights and higher level id's in consecutive columns. The weights are weight1, weight2 and the ids are picx1 picx2 where the picx's indicate ...

Thanks so much!

That worked!

Then the issue is where I can join my constraints to the already existing constraints?

Here's where I think the relevant code is from BVAR.MC

case 1:
note ordered multinomial
switch b9
case :
note 1st iter constrain (p=mvar)
count c1096 b201
switch b201
case 0:
put 1 0.1 c1096
set b201 1 ...

I think that you are exactly right. When I do SETT I get
RCONstraints in c1488 .

However when I look at the macro bvar.mc, I don't see how it sets that column for the constraints.

I do see b4 and cb4. Does cb4 refer to b4? Is b4 actually c1488?

Any thoughts?

I tried the following

JOIN 1 0 0 1 C118
RCON C118

but the constraints were not applied. The estimated variance component was 0.153, not 1.0.

The question I am trying to ask on the user forum concerns setting constraints on variance parameters. I have a 3 level random effects model where the response varialbe is ordered multinomial. The 3 levels are teacher, time and item. Teacher and time are defined as simple random effects. I wish to ...

I used to be able to change the worksheet size by choosing options and changing the (k cells) in the worksheet tab of settings. However, lately when I do this I notice the that entry always returns to a value of 100000 whether I increase or decrease the size. That is, when I choose worksheet again ...
