Abstract
In this paper, we first define two-level longitudinal-dynamic hierarchical models. These models are designed to fit longitudinal data sets where the dependency structure is not derived from observations but from a second-level model, which is a dynamic model for the parameters of the hierarchical model. First, we will discuss different methods for estimating the superparameters of two-level longitudinal-dynamic hierarchical models. Then, we will present the corresponding types of estimation for the superparameter that is the factor that creates the correlation in this model. This is followed by a simulation study along with the analysis of a real data set.
