Data Analysis Training
Institute of
Workshop on Hierarchical Linear Models
Instructors:
D. Betsy McCoach, Ph. D.
&
Ann A. O'Connell, Ed.D.
Two
workshops on Hierarchical Linear Models will be held at the
Session A:
Session B: Monday, June 21 to Friday, June 25
Each HLM workshop
covers basics and applications of multilevel modeling with extensions to more
complex designs. Participants will learn how to analyze both organizational and
longitudinal (growth curve) data using multilevel modeling and to interpret the
results from their analyses. While the workshop does not require any prior
knowledge or experience with multilevel modeling, participants are expected to
have a working knowledge of multiple regression as well as SPSS (or SAS).
Analyses will be demonstrated using the software HLMv6..
Instruction will consist of lectures, computer workshops, and individualized
consultations. The workshop emphasizes practical applications and places
minimal emphasis on statistical theory.
Because
the number of spaces is limited, please apply soon to reserve a space. To
register, send an email to daticworkshops@gmail.com

Participants
are encouraged to bring their own data. They should contact the
instructors beforehand to ensure that data are appropriately formatted for
analysis using HLM or SPSS.
The workshop covers the
following topics:
