Re: st: nested design and logistic regression

["Denis Haine" <denis_haine@hotmail.com>]

I'm not sure -nlogit- would do for my problem. With -nlogit-, as explained 
in the manual, the decisions in later levels are limited by those made in 
earlier levels and there's no repetiton of the decision in a specific level. 
Here, maternal parents have or have not a treatment and their offspring are 
receiving the same treatment, at high or low dose. So you have 4 groups: 
treated mother-offspring high dose, treated mother-offspring low dose, not 
treated mother-offspring high dose, not treated mother-offspring low dose.
