hil, with xtmixed, can I analyze a split-plot type of design that
includes a between-groups variable (e.g., group, but unequal sample
sizes across groups) and the session repeated measures variable? Would
the unbalanced design present problems?  I was also wondering what the
syntax might look like for that design (one between groups variable,
one repeated measures variable)?  Many thanks!
-------------------

-xtmixed- will handle splitplot type designs that are unbalanced
between subjects and have missing observations within subjects.  If
"a" is the between subjects factor and
"b" is the within subject factor, the -xtmixed- code in Stata 12 looks
like this:

xtmixed dv a##b || id:, var reml

See this web page for an example of how to obtain the between and
within degrees of freedom:
