Vielen Dank, Spencer.
I could not find a published example where both the original data and
conditional posterior variances were available. Instead, I toyed around
a little with artificial data, and the (pretty pathetic) result below is
the closest I came to "Monte Carlo-ing". I'm afraid I lack
I shall provide herewith an example of what I believe is "the
conditional posterior variance of a random effect". I hope someone more
knowledgeable will check this and provide a correction if it's not
correct. I say this in part because my simple rationality check (below)
didn't mat
Hello,
I'm sorry to resurrect this thread that I started almost two months ago.
I've been pretty busy since I posted my question and the issue is not
that high on my priority list. Thanks to all those who replied, and I
hope I can tickle your interest again.
As a reminder, my question was how

Hello,
I am looking for a way to obtain standard errors for emprirical Bayes estimates
of a model fitted with lmer (like the ones plotted on page 14 of the document
available at
http://www.eric.ed.gov/ERICDocs/data/ericdocs2/content_storage_01/000b/80/2b/b3/94.pdf).
