Specifications for this HLM2 run

Problem Title: no title

The data source for this run = mathread.mdm
The command file for this run = C:\Users\mcrdz\AppData\Local\Temp\whlmtemp.hlm
Output file name = C:\Users\mcrdz\Desktop\DocumentsMCR\COURSES\EPSY8268-HLM\Data\hlm2.html
The maximum number of level-1 units = 2700
The maximum number of level-2 units = 47
The maximum number of iterations = 100

Method of estimation: restricted maximum likelihood

The outcome variable is MATH05

Summary of the model specified

Level-1 Model

    MATH05ij = β0j + β1j*(READ05ij) + rij

Level-2 Model

    β0j = γ00 + γ01*(READ05_Mj) + u0j
    β
1j = γ10 + u1j

READ05 has been centered around the group mean.

READ05_M has been centered around the grand mean.

Mixed Model

    MATH05ij = γ00 + γ01*READ05_Mj 
    + γ
10*READ05ij  + u0j + u1j*READ05ij + rij

Run-time deletion has reduced the number of level-1 records to 2657
