Widetolong with twolevel data |

Hello, I am trying to run a path analysis with two-level data. I was able to transform the data with the widetolong command when the analysis was "basic". However, when I try to run the path analysis (using type = twolevel), I receive the error "DATA LONGTOWIDE is currently not available with TYPE=COMPLEX or TYPE=TWOLEVEL." I wanted to check to see if I cannot use longtowide command with two-level data or if something is wrong in my syntax. Also, could I use this command and type=twolevel with version 8 (I am using version 7)? |

here is my syntax: Data longtowide: Long = lonely | ns_comp | exp_mean; Wide = lonely1-lonely3 | ns_comp1-ns_comp3 | exp_mean1-exp_mean3; IDvariable = ID; Repetition = TOD (0, 1, 2); Variable: Names are ...; Usevariables = spp sop lonely2 lonely3 ns_comp1 ns_comp2 exp_mean1 exp_mean2; useobservations = surveys gt 7 and valid lt 6; within = ; between = SPP SOP; cluster = ID; MISSING = ALL (-999); Define: center SPP SOP (grandmean); Analysis: Type = twolevel; estimator = mlr; Model: %within% exp_mean1 on ns_comp1; lonely2 on exp_mean1; exp_mean2 on ns_comp2; lonely3 on exp_mean2; %between% ns_comp1 ns_comp2 on spp sop; exp_mean1 on ns_comp1; exp_mean2 on ns_comp2; lonely2 on exp_mean1; lonely3 on exp_mean2; |

See UG ex 9.16. If you want to do twolevel analysis you should use WIDETOLONG, not LONGTOWIDE. We ask that postings be limited to one window. Otherwise, send to Support. |
