MEAFA workshop on Multilevel/mixed Models Using Stata, 10 - 12 February 2010

Multilevel/mixed models contain both fixed effects analogous to the coefficients in standard regression models and random effects not directly estimated but instead summarized through the unique elements of their variance-covariance matrix. Mixed models may contain more than one level of nested random effects, and hence these models are also referred to as multilevel or hierarchical models, particularly in the social sciences. Stata's approach to linear mixed models is to assign random effects to independent panels where a hierarchy of nested panels can be defined for handling nested random effects.

NetCourse 461 Introduction to Univariate Time Series Using Stata
The course will appeal to a broad range of users, including economists, forecasters, business analysts, and anyone who encounters time-series data.

The course is organized like our other NetCourses. There will be a lecture posted to the course web site each Friday, along with a set of questions that review the material. Answers to the questions will be posted a week later. Students will also have access to a discussion board where they can post questions and interact with the course leader and other students.

The course consists of five lectures and covers topics such as using time-series data in Stata, moving averages and exponential smoothers, ARMA processes, the autocorrelation and partial autocorrelation functions, ARIMA and ARMAX models, regression analysis, unit roots, and ARCH models. The optional fifth lecture introduces Stata's multivariate time-series features.
