INFERENCE SPACEINFERENCE SPACE(Sanders)(Sanders)
• The choice between fixed and random effects depends in part on the reference population (the inference space)
–These studies or people
– Studies or people like these– .........

Random Effects Random Effects should replace “unit of analysis”should replace “unit of analysis”
• Models contain Fixed-effects, Random effects (via Variance Components) and other correlation-inducers
• There are many “units” and so in effect no single set of units
• Random Effects induce unexplained (co)variance• Some of the unexplained may be explicable by
including additional covariates• MLMs are one way to induce a structure and
estimate the REs

ACCOUNTING FOR ACCOUNTING FOR (explaining)(explaining)
UNEXPLAINED VARIABILITYUNEXPLAINED VARIABILITY
• Including regressors can explain (account for) some of unexplained variability
• Doing so is always a trade-off in that you need to use degrees of freedom to do the explaining
• Going too far--adding too many regressors-- inflates residual variability
• In MLMs there is variance at various levels that can potentially be taken into account

TEACHER EXPECTANCYTEACHER EXPECTANCY(data are in “Datasets” )
Data are from a Raudenbush & Bryk meta-analysis of 19 studies (see Cooper and Hedges,1994)
Effect sizek = distance between treatment and control group means measured in population standard deviation units
SEk = the standard error of the effect size
Weeksk = estimated weeks of teacher-student contact prior to expectancy induction

TEACHER EXPECTANCY TEACHER EXPECTANCY (continued)
• Each study consisted of either telling teachers that a student had great potential or not
• All students received a pre-test and a post-test
• Teachers evaluated progress
• A positive effect size indicates that the teachers rated students who were “likely to improve” as having improved more than the control group
• A negative slope on “Weeks” indicates that the more a teacher got to know a student before the experiment,the less the influence of the expectancy intervention
