Proč užívat hierarchické lineární modely?

100%
EN
The article briefly describes multilevel models and presents their simplest applications. After the methodological and statistical need for this procedure is explained, real data are used to demonstrate how a hierarchical linear model is constructed. The article presents models with a random intercept, models with random slopes, and models with explanatory variables measured at higher levels. In the conclusion, other possible applications of multilevel analysis are discussed, and the basic readings on multilevel analysis are presented.

GENDERED HOUSEWORK. A CROSS-EUROPEAN ANALYSIS

100%
EN
The paper focuses on the factors which influence the sharing of domestic work in European countries. Many previous studies have offered explanations on the individual level, taking into account only individual characteristics when predicting a spouse's contribution to chores. Using multilevel regression models, we try to combine the individual-level and country-level factors in order to draw an explanatory model for the gendered sharing of housework within couples across the European societies. The analysis provides support for most of the theories we have tested. The resource theory and the dependency/bargaining hypothesis were confirmed: in a couple, when one of the partners has more resources or a better status, the other spouse uses relatively more hours for the housework. On the other hand, religious and gender values play an important role: the more secular and more oriented towards gender equality a couple is in thinking, the more equally the partners share their housework. However, on the average, all over the world, women spend more hours on housework than men do. The country-level indicators seem to be less important, but the societies which are more affluent, less materialist societies, post-communist societies, societies where women are more present in public life, and those where Catholicism is not the dominant religion are characterized by a more equalitarian sharing of the housework.

This paper hypothesizes that conspiracy theories and rumours are an act of social conformism. The evaluation of their plausibility, and their success, is collectively determinate regarding the established values of an in-group and the social context. In periods of troubles they flourish to reaffirm themselves and strengthen community’s ties, structures and leaderships. After a theoretical introduction, the author will demonstrate this assumption through a multilevel analysis (macro, meso, micro) which considers a wide range of social situations from the French Revolution to neighbourhood conflicts and from open riots to latent crises.
