Dear list: I have a student conducting a study for a thesis where he is looking at firemen/women’s’ intentions to use safety devices. He has a pre measure and a post measure (intervention between pre and post)-a repeated measure (within group design). However, the firemen/women are nested within battalions. Each battalion is made up of 4-6 station houses. The firemen/women work out of station houses- so it seems that should be the level of analysis. I haven’t used a nested design in many years and would appreciate any direction in regard to texts or articles that would help me figure out the design so that we can then analyze the data within spss. Advice appreciated. mfs
