1 Multilevel Structural Equation Modeling Joop Hox Utrecht University 14_15_mlevsem
2 Multilevel Regression Three level data structure Groups at different levels may have different sizes Response (outcome) variable at lowest level Explanatory variables at all levels The statistical model assumes sampling at all levels 2
3 The Multilevel Regression Model Single Equation Version At the lowest (individual) level we have Y ij = β 0j + β 1j X ij + e ij and at the second (group) level β 0j = γ 00 + γ 01 Z j + u 0j β 1j = γ 10 + γ 11 Z j + u 1j Combining (substitution and rearranging terms) gives Y ij = γ 00 + γ 10 X ij + γ 01 Z j + γ 11 Z j X ij + u 1j X ij + u 0j + e ij 3
4 Why Multilevel SEM? Limitations of the Multilevel Regression Model Does not accommodate measurement error Model is very simple: no latent variables with multiple indicators (=no measurement model), no mediation, no reciprocal effects No overall goodness-of-fit indices Overcome by using the more general Structural Equation Modeling approach Of which multiple regression is a special case 4
5 Multilevel SEM and Multilevel Regression are starting to merge Approaches are Incorporating latent variables and measurement errors into multilevel regression (HLM, MLwiN) Incorporating multilevel structures including random intercepts and slopes into SEM (Mplus, gllamm) (Lisrel, Eqs) 5
6 Statistical Elements of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Model specifications: + Data (covariance matrix S) Estimates of model parameters (regression coefficients, variances) 6
7 Statistical Elements of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) Multivariate normality Observed data summed up perfectly by covariance matrix S (+ means M) Observed covariance matrix S is an estimator of the population covariance matrix Σ Model for Σ contains parameters θ: M(θ) Factor loadings, path coefficients, (co)variances Estimated by Maximum Likelihood Standard errors, overall significance test 7
8 Two Level SEM Assume a population that consists of groups Sampling at two levels: groups and individuals within groups Decompose Total scores T into disaggregated group means B (Between Groups) and individual deviations (Within Groups): W=T-B T=W+B Σ T =Σ W +Σ B S T =S W +S B 8
9 Two-Level CFA: Single Equation Version At the lowest (individual) level we have and at the second (group) level y = µ + Λ η + ε ij j W ij W µ = µ + Λ η + ε j B j B Combining (substitution and rearranging terms) gives y = µ + Λ η + Λ η + ε + ε ij W ij B j B W Note: random intercept model, but in Mplus the factor loadings Λ W can also vary across groups 9
10 Estimating Two-level SEM With Standard Software Muthén showed that analyze S PW with Within model and analyze S * B with same Within model plus (scale factor n) * Between model If groups are not of equal size MUML (Muthén s ML) = ignore problem (Limited Information ML) = Σ MUML approximation is still available but de facto superseded by better estimation methods: ML & WLSM(V) (Mplus only) S PW W S = Σ + nσ * B W B 10
11 Example 2-level 2 CFA: Family IQ Data 60 families, 400 children Scores on 6 intelligence tests Multilevel structure: children nested in families Simulated data (Hox, 2010), patterned after Van Peet, A.A.J. (1992). De potentieeltheorie van intelligentie. [The potentiality theory of intelligence] Amsterdam: University of Amsterdam, Unpublished Ph.D. Thesis 11
12 Path Diagram for Family IQ Data Showing the between & within part separately Note that the 2 nd level variables are actually latent variables They represent the 2 nd level variation of the intercepts of the 1 st level observed variables 12
13 Path Diagram for Family IQ Data Showing Random Intercepts & Slopes Between model Within model 13
14 Example Sibling Data: Raw Data File Variables are: famnr wordlist cards figures matrices animals occup Input to Mplus
15 Example Family IQ Data: Exploratory Analysis N Within =N-G and N Between =G Usually N-G >> G start with analysis of S PW Sibling data: exploratory factor analysis of S PW suggests 2 correlated factors, hence the within model is specified as a CFA with 2 factors 15
16 Example Family IQ Data: Mplus Analysis Muthén s Mplus makes two-level SEM simple Hides all complications from the user Since version 3 full Maximum Likelihood estimation Since version 5 Weighted Least Squares estimation Standard WLSM or WLSMV should be used Faster, but no random slopes User needs only to specify within and between model 16
