Multilevel Modeling of Educational Data

This book performs Statistical Analyses of Educational data. Initially simple descriptive measures such as mosaic plots are used to look for patterns in the data. Then univariate tests are used to look for relationships between the pass/fail status of the examination and other explanatory variables. Finally multilevel models are used to model the binary variable and determine the factors affecting this variable.
