From a quantitative point of view,the use of diary design provides a possibility to:
(a) Obtain reliable person-level information(b) Obtain estimates of within-person change
over time, as well as individual differences in such change
(c) Conduct a causal analysis of within-person changes and individual differences in these changes

You may, for example, be interested in to investigate not only individual level processes (i.e., individual differences) but also day level (i.e., within individual differences, for
example, from day-to-day) processes, and cross-level interactions…
Different processes may be going on at different levels.
![Page 4: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
For example,
At the person-level => positive correlation between parental affection and
guilt-inducing parenting (those typically showing high affection, also typically use quilt-inducing in child rearing)
At the day-level => negative correlation between parental affection and
guilt-inducing parenting (on the days parents show high affection, they don’t use guilt-inducing, and vice versa, i.e. they do not use these two types of parenting simultaneously)
Cross-level interaction: e.g., there are indivdiual differences in the processes going on at the day level
![Page 5: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Multilevel modeling is a feasible tool to analyze both
a) between-person differences and
b) within-person changes… as well as interpersonal differences in these within-person
changes
![Page 6: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The term ”multilevel” refers to a hierarchical or nested data structure
= cluster sampling
![Page 7: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Nested means that the data includes different levels:
- family members nested within families
- pupils nested within schools
- spouses nested within couples
- time-points nested within individuals
- etc.
Observations nested within a certain cluster share something which makes them more or less similar with each other.

’Clusters’
The variation in measured variables is due toa) individual differences ANDb) differences within individuals, i.e.
differences between days
![Page 10: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Multilevel modeling is used when the data have been obtained by cluster sampling (i.e., nested design)
… to avoid biases in parameter estimates, standard errors, and tests of model fit
(if clustering is not taking account, s.e.’s are too small and, thus, t-values are too big)
… to learn about both within- and between-cluster relationships.
Muthén & Muthén, 2004
![Page 11: Analyzing diary data: Multilevel approach](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568160e6550346895dd01a62/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Technically…
… the variation of variables are divided into two parts
(1) Between-level variance
(2) Within-level variance
… there may also be variables that have variation only at the between-level or only at the within-level.
=> two separate covariance-matrixes, one for each level

Participants and Procedure• LIGHT-data (150 mothers, 115 fathers, 150
children (Grade 1))
• Daily diary across one week period for mothers and fathers during the Autumn term of Grade 1– Negative daily emotions (8 items); Within-level
alphas .72-.78– Psychological control (5 items) and affection (4 items)
in daily parenting; Within-level alphas .67-.73

Children’s negative emotions and mothers’ and fathers’ psychological control varied more between days than between persons, whereas mothers’ and fathers’ affection varied more between persons than between days.
Intraclass correlations (ICC) were first calculated to determine what proportion of the variance in the observed variables is due to the differences between individuals (between-person variation) and what is due to differences experienced by each individual on different days (within-person variation):
ICC Intraclass correlation (ICC):
Between-cluster variability relative to total variation, i.e. intra-class homogeneity

Conclusions
• Mothers’ and fathers’ psychological control in daily interactions increased the negative emotions in their children. In contrast, children’s negative emotions during a given day predicted decreased parental psychological control for the next day.
• The positive relation of psychological control to children’s subsequent negative emotions was significantly stronger when exerted by fathers than when applied by mothers

Research questions(1) What kind of week trend do parents’ and children’s emotions
show? (2) To what extent parents’ positive and negative emotions are
transferred to their children in daily interaction?(3) To what extent children’s positive and negative emotions are
transferred to their parents in daily interaction?(4) Does children’s temperament impact on emotion transmission in
the family? 4a. Are children with certain temperament characteristics
more prone to receive their parents’ emotions than others? For example, does child’s ’easy’ temperament function as a protective factor against receiving negative emotions from parents?
4b. Are parents more prone to receive emotions from children with certain temperament characteristics?

Results• At the level of the whole sample, no statistically significant
transmission of emotions was found
• However, there were statistically significant (p < .05) variation in emotion transmission:
– From mothers’ negative emotions to children’s negative emotions– From fathers’ negative emotions to children’s negative emotions– From mothers’ positive emotions to children’s positive emotions
• In each case, child’s negative emotionality functioned as a moderator
