The fixed versus random effects debate and how it relates to centering in multilevel modeling - PubMed

In many disciplines researchers use longitudinal panel data to investigate the potentially causal relationship between 2 variables. However, the conventions and concerns vary widely across disciplines. Here we focus on 2 concerns, that is: (a) the concern about random effects versus fixed effects, w …

Best part of going to Europe is being able to pay for your meal on the machine at the table. The American game of ask for check, get check, provide credit card, waiter picks up credit card, get receipt is absolutely ludicrous.

Such an important paper. So many published 'critiques' of P-values could have been avoided if the distinction was well known. Would recommend that critics read it especially #statstwitter #rstats https://twitter.com/avigotsky/status/1615808064124293135

RCTs:
1) You have little control over the presenting process.
2) You have tight control over the allocation algorithm.
3) Your analysis must reflect 2) but 1) is irrelevant if and only if you make comparisons between treatment & control. If not, speculative modelling results.
