Description for Multilevel Modelling of Health Statistics
Hardback. Multilevel modelling facilitates the analysis of hierarchical data where observations may be nested within higher levels of classification. In health care research, for example, a study may be undertaken to determine the variability of patient outcomes where these also vary by hospital or health care region. Editor(s): Leyland, A. H.; Goldstein, Harvey. Series: Wiley Series in Probability & Statistics: Applied Probability & Statistics Section. Num Pages: 246 pages, Ill. BIC Classification: MBNS; MBP; PBT. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 244 x 165 x 20. Weight in Grams: 526.
Multilevel modelling facilitates the analysis of hierarchical data where observations may be nested within higher levels of classification. In health care research, for example, a study may be undertaken to determine the variability of patient outcomes where these also vary by hospital or health care region. Inference can then be made on the efficacy of health care practices. This book provides the reader with the analytical techniques required to study such data sets.
* First book to focus on multilevel modelling for health and medical research
