Fig. 15

Power curves for the variance component of the random slope are presented, now for a Level 1 (continuous) and Level 2 (categorical) predictors. Moderate (skewness of \( \sqrt{8/5} \) and 70/30 imbalance) and extreme (skewness of \( \sqrt{8} \) and 90/10 imbalance) simulation conditions are shown. Variance for the random slope is \( {\sigma}_1^2=0.3 \) with an ICC of 0.3 (medium effect size). Power of 80% is marked with a horizontal line. Horizontal axis denotes Level 1 sample size and vertical axis shows power. Level 2 sample sizes are shown on top of each panel in grey. LV1 stands for Level 1 and LV2 stands for Level 2
