Re: Problem with 2nd-level variables in ordered multilevel m

Dear Ad, For MCMC models estimated via R2MLwiN, starting values can be specified via the estoptions argument startval. See, for example the demo for Chapter 5 of the MCMC manual - e.g. to run it: R> demo(Chapter05) or return the script: R> file.show(system.file("demo", "Chapter05.R&qu...

Re: 2LevelImpute

Hi - when you shift & right-click then choose to 'Open Command Window Here' in C:\StatJR\src\apps\tree, it should change the directory appropriately, so the prompt now appears as follows: C:\StatJR\src\apps\tree> Then typing, at the prompt: tree 2> C:\Users\MyName\Documents\errors.txt ...(or the...

Hi - thanks for letting us know - sorry you're still having problems. We've been trying to further diagnose the issue. Could you please try the following, and let us know if it remedies the situation? Open the following folder in Windows Explorer (or the equivalent if your copy of Stat-JR is install...

Re: errorr gcc compiler

Hi - thanks for trying that out; sorry you're still having problems. I've attached a command file which starts up the Stat-JR:TREE interface and explicitly sets the path to MinGW (assuming all saved in default locations). If you unzip it and copy the command file into the directory in which Stat-JR ...

Re: 2LevelImpute

Hi - the 2LevelImpute template does support the inclusion of the MOI's outcome variable in the imputation model (e.g. in the accompanying eBook, the MOI's outcome variable 'normexam' is included as an explanatory variable in the imputation model). Sorry you got an error message. Do your variable nam...

Re: Interaction terms

Hi - yes, at the moment interaction terms would have to be generated in the dataset prior to its use with the 2LevelImpute template; they then could be added as another variable, but note that this would introduce bias. Some of my colleagues here at the CMM have recently published on this topic (see...

Re: 2 level template error

Hi - the error message you sent appears to be from DEEP (the eBook-reading interface) as opposed to TREE. Might be worth trying it in TREE as well - you can run the template with the example dataset from there (you'll see the input boxes are the same, so you can enter the same inputs as you did in t...

Re: 2 level template error

Hi - sorry to hear you have having trouble. Would you be able to send a screenshot of the inputs you are making which result in the error? Or perhaps try to run the same example but using the other Stat-JR interface, TREE. The same dataset and template should be accessible from there (if they have b...

Re: Imputation very slow

Hi - Stat-JR is distributed with MLwiN, and it isn't yet available as a trial version (see http://www.bristol.ac.uk/cmm/software/statjr/order-statjr/ for details on how to order it). Stat-JR works with data in Stata format (i.e. with a .dta extension), although you can upload your data as a .txt fil...
