multilevel methods, theory, and analysis  

Definición

  • The term multilevel relates to the levels of analysis in public health research, which usually, but not always, consist of individuals (at lower level) who are nested within spatial units (at higher levels). Multilevel methods, meanwhile, consist of quantitative procedures that are pertinent when (a) the observations that are being analyzed are correlated; (b) the causal processes are thought to operate at more than one level; and/or (c) the research interest is especially in describing the variability and heterogeneity in the population, rather than average values.
