DOI: 10.1016/j.econlet.2020.109667
Abstract: Abstract This paper shows that several moment redundancy results developed for panel data models continue to hold for multi-level models with strict exogenous explanatory variables, which establishes the efficiency of some estimators for multi-level linear… read more here.

DOI: 10.1037/met0000573
Abstract: Testing null hypotheses of the form "β = 0," by the use of various Null Hypothesis Significance Tests (rendering a dichotomous reject/not reject decision), is considered standard practice when evaluating the individual parameters of statistical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00949655.2018.1553242
Abstract: ABSTRACT This study aims to measure the robustness of multi-level models designed for three anthropometric indices – height-for-age (HAZ), weight-for-age (WAZ) and weight-for-height (WHZ) Z-scores for estimating the childhood malnutrition indicators stunting, underweight and wasting… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/g13030045
Abstract: The experimental evidence on contests often reports overspending of contest participants compared to the theoretical Nash equilibrium outcome. We show that a standard level-k model may rationalize overspending in contests. This result complements the existing… read more here.

DOI: 10.5705/ss.2013.383
Abstract: Multi-level models provide a convenient framework for analyzing data from survey samples with hierarchical structures. Inferential procedures that take account of survey design features are well established for single-level (or marginal) models. On the other… read more here.
