Dear Chris,

What are the differences between the command for a simple logistic regression model below


*The code for a simple logistic regression model.
* run with IGLS
runmlwin psycmed cons male ib(first).agegroup poor, ///
level2(neigh: cons) level1(id: ) discrete(distribution(binomial) link ...

Dear Chris,

Thank you for your knowledge. I just read forcesort .
Other - (R)IGLS and MCMC
forcesort. forces the data to be sorted according to the model hierarchy
forcesort forces the data sent to MLwiN to be sorted according to the model hierarchy. We recommend that users sort their data ...

Dear Chris,

In the next stage

. * run with RIGLS to create starting values
. runmlwin psycmed cons i.agegroup male poor, level2(neigh: cons) level1(id: ) discrete(distribution(binomial) link(logit) denom(cons)) rigls mlwinsettings(optimat) nopause


the problem which I face ...

Thank you very much, i just saw mlwinsettings(optimat) at https://www.bristol.ac.uk/cmm/media/runmlwin/3.3.do
and I have a little bit change the *.do file below

Dear Chris,

Thank you very much for your great feedback.

Based on your direction, I have read how to save Stata dataset as MLwiN worksheet (savewsz)
at http://fmwww.bc.edu/RePEc/bocode/s/savewsz.html

Besides, I have created Stata do-file to replicate all analyses using runmlwin which I obtained ...

Hello everyone,


I am a new user of MLwiN and multilevel modelling too. I am writing an article both 2-level model and the 3-level model, which inspired by a great paper: An Original Stepwise Multilevel Logistic Regression Analysis (MLRA) of Discriminatory Accuracy: The Case of Neighbourhoods and ...

Dear George,

Thank you very much for your nice feedback. I have compared some fit model below.

Y is dependent variable in a categoric
x1 to x 21 is dependent variable in a categoric at level 1 / Micro level/id level
x22 to x25 is dependent variable in a continuous at level 2 / Marco level ...

I have made command below used Stata 14

gen cons = 1
gen id = _n

runmlwin malaria cons, level2(district: cons) level1(id:) discrete(distribution(binomial) link(logit) denominator(cons))

however, I found the notification

The data must be sorted according to the order of the model hierarchy ...
