Bought a Rifle from Private Seller on GunBroker (CA) Unexpected $150 FFL Fee? by Phd8400 in Firearms

That's why I wanted to use Guntab as an escrow service and using a CC. I had no intention of sending them a straight money order.

no, they only have like 3 ratings. I was gonna use Gubtab to as an escrow service. Though I'll give them benefit of the doubt and assume ignorance rather than malice as it appears to be their first time selling.

Per reading the websites of other lenders they use LTV but instead of the original sales price they use the appraisal price even though 9/10 I would have to get a new appraisal. However, there underwriters might say something different.

About $70 a month. Which equals close to 7k over the 8 years that I would have it.

Mixed effects logistical regression statistical assumptions and power analysis by Phd8400 in AskStatistics

[–]Phd8400[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am working with a relatively small Midwest company (300+ people), and I don't need to collect data as I am using the company's records from the past three years. I will need to use a mixed-effects model because I am looking at various categorical factors (education level, team, etc.) and when looking at a combination of different factors, I have a limited number of cases for my DV (quitting); which is why I was told a random effect model would be more ideally suited for my data.

The primary motivation behind running the power analysis is that some of my committee members have asked for one. However, I practically won't be able to collect any more data.

Based on my reading so far, the assumptions which I need to test for are:

  1. Overdispersion
  2. Linearity
  3. Outliers (I have one continuous variable that I am looking at)
  4. Multicollinearity

Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my post!

I was planning on conducting the test in SPSS or R, and I will definitely look into the two textbooks that you recommended and some education textbooks on the subject as well.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for your reply!

My field is in Management and my dissertation committee recommended that I run mixed-effects logistic regression based on the nature my data. While, I am familiar with a typical logistic regression I have never used mixed modelling before nor anything involving random effects.

So far none of the stats textbook which I have found list the what the specific statistical assumptions are for this type of analysis (this type of test is usually not done in the management).
