[amelia] Nested but not �time series�

Thank you for the response, Gary. I've successfully downloaded AmeliaView and I read through the documentation and What to do About Missing Values in Time Series Cross-Section Data. My data are not time series in the sense of repeated measures within a subject across time. My data structure is people (level 1, n = 800) nested within organizations (level 2, g =90) at one time (cross-sectional). So people nested in the same organization all have the same value for a particular variable (let's call it cluster). It's not clear to me how to communicate this to Amelia. My guess is that I need to make this clear in Step 2 Options (box for Time Series Index and/or box for Cross-Sectional Index). Can you point me in the right direction? Thank you. nick myers ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nicholas D.
