Modelling measurement errors and category misclassifications in multilevel models
Abstract: Models are developed to adjust for measurement errors in normally distributed predictor and response variables and categorical predictors with misclassification errors. The models allow for a hierarchical data structure and for correlations among the errors and misclassifications. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation is used and implemented in a set of MATLAB macros. Key words: multilevel model; measurement errors; misclassification errors; MCMC estimatio
