38	Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) in layman terms
37	What are the worst (commonly adopted) ideas/principles in statistics?
37	Confused about independent probabilities. If a fair coin is flipped 5 times, P(HHHHH) = 0.03125, but P(H \| HHHH) = 0.5
35	Big disagreement in the slope estimate when groups are treated as random vs. fixed in a mixed model
27	Why is the marginal distribution/marginal probability described as "marginal"?

+10	Multilevel model with responses only at level 2
+10	Mixed effects model: Compare random variance component across levels of a grouping variable
+10	Is up- or down-sampling imbalanced data actually that effective? Why?
+10	Why are coefficient in regression model interpreted as change in response with unit increase in that variable with others constant?
