Cross-classified multilevel binary logistic regression model with random effects at level 2

Hello



I am not a seasoned R user and am therefore keen to identify a book
chapter that provides structured advice on using R to set up the type of
model I am interested in. I would like to run a cross-classified
multilevel binary logistic regression model. The model contains two level
2 random effects variables. These variables are crossed to form a
cross-classified design. The model has subjects at level one and these
subjects are nested within each of the two level 2 variables. I
understand that the R package lme4 may be suitable for running my model
and that there are several published books on running mixed models in R.
If a list member is able to kindly recommend whether one of these books
is particularly helpful in enabling less experienced R users to fully
understand how to use this (or an alternative) program specifically for
the model I have outlined above, I would be most grateful for
recommendations.

Best wishes



Margaret
