We extend a unified and easy-to-use approach to measurement error and missing data. In our companion article, Blackwell, Honaker, and King give an intuitive overview of the new technique, along with practical suggestions and empirical applications. Here, we offer more precise technical details, more sophisticated measurement error model…

Lai, Mark H. C.; Kwok, Oi-man – Journal of Experimental Education, 2015
Educational researchers commonly use the rule of thumb of "design effect smaller than 2" as the justification of not accounting for the multilevel or clustered structure in their data. The rule, however, has not yet been systematically studied in previous research. In the present study, we generated data from three different models…

Victor Snipes Swaim – ProQuest LLC, 2009
Numerous procedures have been suggested for determining the number of factors to retain in factor analysis. However, previous studies have focused on comparing methods using normal data sets. This study had two phases. The first phase explored the Kaiser method, Scree test, Bartlett's chi-square test, Minimum Average Partial (1976&2000),…

Peer reviewedAbdel-Megeed, Samir M. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1984
The minimum number of points required for continuous scaled variables before the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient (PPMCC) ceases to be an accurate estimate if their original correlation coefficient is five. Results also indicated that the PPMCC obtained by using transformed discrete ordinal-level variables tended to underestimate the…

Beasley, T. Mark; Leitner, Dennis W. – 1994
The use of stepwise regression has been criticized for both interpretive misunderstandings and statistical aberrations. A major statistical problem with stepwise regression and other procedures that involve multiple significance tests is the inflation of the Type I error rate. General approaches to control the family-wise error rate such as the…

The merits of the multilevel model for educational research and its uses for school effectiveness research are considered. The main goal of the paper is to establish what intelligent applications of multilevel models can do, helping researchers decide what they must do to make a rational choice between models. Multilevel models are random line…
