This study applied Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the robustness of parameter estimates for a two-level Hierarchical Linear Model (HLM) to the violations of the second-level residual homoskedasticity and independence assumptions. It considered these violations in the context of a typical HLM model with random intercepts as outcomes, a model that has been commonly used in value-added analysis for school settings. The results suggested that estimates of both fixed and random parameters in HLM-2L are robust to the moderate and severe violations of this assumption. It also provided new evi...
