RBMLM macro

[noetsi]

Wang and his colleagues developed a macro for multilevel non-parametric bootstrapping. The one for linear dependent variables is called RBMLM. Another Macro was later developed for a categorical dependent variable ( I do not know its name). I desperately need these, but have been unable to find them them. If anyone knows where I can find them I would appreciate it. They created a document called NESUG 2011 that mentions this (it says the macro is attached to a link but if so it does not appear when I click on it). I attached this.

I have tried to contact Dr Wang about this, but have not gotten through.

Is it different than the one in the journal article they published? I don't have access to journals but it seems listed there, Appendix B. I do not have access to this site to check the code.

First, Prof. Wang has probably been on Winter Break, so try again when classes resume.

Second, he wrote a book on Multilevel Models and you can download all the program from his book

Wang, J., Xie, H. & Fisher, J. 2012. Multilevel Models: Applications Using SAS.

There is a bootstrap macro in Chapter 6 (ML_Bootstrap) that might be what you are looking for. The book probably explains what the macro does.

I have the link to the original article, thank you for it, but the macro appears to be in the appendix which means as far as I can tell you have to pay for. I have been unable to open the appendix or get the full pdf without paying for it (since I work for the state I won't be able to pay for it).

I have the 2006 book - but I was not sure what part of the book was the macro (and I was reluctant to copy the several pages of code that might have been the macro because the chance of making a typing mistake was very high even if I got the code right). the book deals with linear dependent variables only, so I will also have to the new code developed in 2017 that deals with categorical variables.

Thank you very much, both respondents, it never occurred to me that classes might still be out (been a while since I was in school).
