Personalized medicine enrichment design for DHA supplementation clinical trial
Personalized medicine aims to match patient subpopulation to the most beneficial treatment. The purpose of this study is to design a prospective clinical trial in which we hope to achieve the highest level of confirmation in identifying and making ...

Optimal shrinkage estimation in heteroscedastic hierarchical linear models
Shrinkage estimators have profound impacts in statistics and in scientific and engineering applications. In this article, we consider shrinkage estimation in the presence of linear predictors.

In this paper we introduce shrinkage estimators for the estimation of the Unemployment rate in small domains of the Italian Labour Force Survey. The proposed estimators are based on Hierarchical Linear Mixed Models and on the borrowing strength on both ...

Suppressor variables and multilevel mixture modelling. [PDF]
A major issue in educational research involves taking into consideration the multilevel nature of the data. Since the late 1980s, attempts have been made to model social science data that conform to a nested structure.

A Framework to Interpret Nonstandard Log-Linear Models
The formulation of log-linear models within the framework of Generalized Linear Models offers new possibilities in modeling categorical data. The resulting models are not restricted to the analysis of contingency tables in terms of ordinary hierarchical ...

An introduction to hierarchical linear modeling [PDF]
This tutorial aims to introduce Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM). A simple explanation of HLM is provided that describes when to use this statistical technique and identifies key factors to consider before conducting this analysis. The first section of

Within and Between Group Variation of Individual Strategies in Common Pool Resources: Evidence from Field Experiments [PDF]
With data from framed common pool resource experiments conducted with artisanal fishing communities in Colombia, we estimate a hierarchical linear model to investigate within-group and between-group variation in individual harvest strategies across ...
