It is based on the recognition of random-effect terms in statistical models, leading to inferences and estimates that have much wider applicability and are more realistic than those otherwise obtained.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIntroduction to Mixed Modelling\u003c\/i\u003e leads the reader into mixed modelling as a natural extension of two more familiar methods, regression analysis and analysis of variance. It provides practical guidance combined with a clear explanation of the underlying concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLike the first edition, this new edition shows diverse applications of mixed models, provides guidance on the identification of random-effect terms, and explains how to obtain and interpret best linear unbiased predictors (BLUPs). It also introduces several important new topics, including the following:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse of the software SAS, in addition to GenStat and R.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMeta-analysis and the multiple testing problem.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe Bayesian interpretation of mixed models.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eIncluding numerous practical exercises with solutions, this book provides an ideal introduction to mixed modelling for final year undergraduate students, postgraduate students and professional researchers. It will appeal to readers from a wide range of scientific disciplines including statistics, biology, bioinformatics, medicine, agriculture, engineering, economics, archaeology and geography.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for the first edition:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"One of the main strengths of the text is the bridge it provides between traditional analysis of variance and regression models and the more recently developed class of mixed models...Each chapter is well-motivated by at least one carefully chosen example...demonstrating the broad applicability of mixed models in many different disciplines...most readers will likely learn something new, and those previously unfamiliar with mixed models will obtain a solid foundation on this topic.\"\u003cbr\u003e—\u003cb\u003eKerrie Nelson, University of South Carolina, in \u003ci\u003eAmerican Statistician,\u003c\/i\u003e 2007\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNicholas W.
