Algebraic notation for variance in negative binomial model
Posted: Fri Oct 05, 2018 11:37 am
Dear Colleagues,
I'm using version 3.02 to run a two level negative binomial model. There seems to be a difference between the algebraic notation for the level 1 variance displayed in the equations window and the notation in teaching materials referencing earlier versions of mlwin and more generally in the literature.
In 3.02 I see..... pi + pi^2*a
Elsewhere I see.... pi + pi^2/v
Is this a bug or is there another explanation?
Many thanks,
Liam
