According to my reading of the manual, HLM6 (Raudenbush, Bryk, Cheon,
Congdon &
du Toit) can do hierarchical multinomial LOGIT. Raudenbush and Bryk's book
(Hierarchical Lineral Models: Application and Data Analysis Methods)
also has a
discussion of hierarchical multinomial models.

Quoting "Scott D. McClurg" <[log in to unmask]>:

> I'm working on a project where I'm looking at a multinomial dependent
> variable and where individuals are nested in states.  So, there is both a
> hierarchical process and a multinomial dependent variable.  Is anyone
> familiar with the use of a multilevel, multinomial probit model in political
> science?  If so, could you please direct me to any (accessible) technical
> papers and applications?
>
> If I get enough varied responses, I'll summarize them and post them to the
> list.

> Thanks in advance!
