Examples using R2MLwiN

MLwiN User Manual

These R-files and Rout files replicate the analyses reported in the MLwiN User Manual (PDF, 3,993kB).‌ Rasbash, J., Steele, F., Browne, W.J. and Goldstein, H. (2023) Centre for Multilevel Modelling, University of Bristol.

Note that we have not created script files for Chapters 1, 8 or 19 of the manual as no models are fitted in those chapters. We have also not yet created the script file for Chapter 17.
