the residuals match the LEAs

Post by assertmeal »

Hello, I am a newbie
I want to construct a residual map by extracting the residuals from a cross-classified model I calculated and matching them to their LEA code. First, I sort the data by the classification I want residuals from. I then unreplicate the data to its short initial length. I generate residuals.
How do I know the residuals match the LEAs when I 'see' them?

Thanks.

For cross-classified models the ordering of the residuals should match the sorted ID variable for the chosen classification. See the topic Residuals - matching for an MLwiN command to generate a new column that matches this.
