Analysis of Contextual Effects on Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling:Compared with Multilevel Modeling
基于多层结构方程模型的情境效应分析——兼与多层线性模型比较

The advantage of multilevel modeling(MLM) is to examine the data with nested structure which is frequently collected in the social and educational research.The effect of level-1 independent variable Xij on Yij would be decomposed into within-group and between-group effects by group mean centering with the means reintroduced into the level-2 intercept model,whose difference was called contextual effect and the reintroduced mean score of independent variable.j was called contextual variable.In order to estima...
