Multilevel Modeling of Categorical Data


I. Ordered categorical responses
• Latent response and generalized linear model formulations
• Two-level random intercept models
• Conditional versus marginal effects
• Multilevel random coefficient models
• Estimation methods
• Example: Cluster randomized trial of sex education in Norway

II. Unordered categorical responses
• Random utility formulation
• Multilevel random utility models
• Example: Abuse of antibiotics in China
