What’s the difference between Mixed and Multilevel Models? What about Hierarchical Models or Random Effects models?
I get this question a lot.
The answer: very little.

The Difference Between Random Factors and Random Effects
Mixed models are hard.
They’re abstract, they’re a little weird, and there is not a common vocabulary or notation for them.
But they’re also extremely important to understand because many data sets require their use.
Repeated measures ANOVA has too many limitations. It just doesn’t cut it any more.
One of the most difficult parts of fitting mixed models is figuring out which random effects to include in a model. And that’s hard to do if you don’t really understand what a random effect is or how it differs from a fixed effect. [Read more…] about The Difference Between Random Factors and Random Effects
Is there a fix if the data is not normally distributed?
In this video I will answer another question from a recent webinar, Random Intercept and Random Slope Models.
We are answering questions here because we had over 500 people live on the webinar so we didn’t have time to get through all the questions.
