The Module

Group support for ST314 Multilevel and Longitudinal Models at LSE

Develops applied methods for analysing clustered, multilevel and longitudinal data. Students use R to fit random-intercept and random-slope models, examine contextual and cross-level effects, select models and interpret repeated-measures and hierarchical data.

Our ST314 group sessions are designed to make the module feel more manageable. Sessions can focus on clarifying lecture material, rebuilding foundations, working through problem sets, data exercises, coding tasks and exam-style questions, and developing a clearer strategy for revision and assessed work.

Because everyone in the group is studying the same LSE module, sessions stay closely focused on the particular methods, notation and types of question students encounter in ST314.

What students often find difficult
  • Understanding the main concepts without losing sight of the bigger picture
  • Applying the theory to problem sets, data exercises, coding tasks and exam-style questions
  • Knowing how much detail is expected in assessed answers
  • Building a clear revision plan when the module starts to feel cumulative

Working in a small group also gives students the opportunity to see how others approach the same problem and to learn from questions they may not have thought to ask themselves.

How the sessions can help
  • Reviewing the intuition behind the core methods
  • Working through problem sets step by step
  • Interpreting output, results and applied examples
  • Building confidence with exam-style questions
  • Focusing on the exact parts of ST314 that the group finds unclear

The aim is not simply to work through solutions, but to make sure students understand the methods well enough to apply them independently.

Topics we can cover

Clustered, multilevel and longitudinal data
R programming
Random-intercept models
Random-slope models
Contextual and cross-level effects
Repeated-measures and hierarchical analysis

The precise content of each session can be adapted to what the group is currently covering at LSE.
