HI everyone,
I try to get some bootstrap CIs for coefficients obtained by quantile
regression. I have influencial values and thus switched to quantreg..
The data is clustered and within clusters the variance of my DV = 0..
Is this sensible for the below data? And what about the warnings?
Thanks in advance for any guidance,
Kay
