Multilevel analysis in the social sciences
Courgeau (Daniel), Baccaini (Brigitte). - Multilevel analysis in the social sciences The multilevel approach can be used to study human behaviour taking into account not only individual characteristics but also the fact that these individuals belong to larger geographical units such as communes and regions. This article gives a detailed critical presentation of the aims and formulations of these models. Attention ranges from the most basic models, which introduce the many different levels in the form of individual and aggregated characteristics, to more complex models which operate with the random characteristics specific to each level, and culminates with multilevel event history models. The article concludes with a more general epistemological reflection on the contribution of these models.
