Larks and Owls: Classical Generalized Linear Mixed Models

Description:

This data set, "Larks and Owls", provides measures of Mind Wandering (MW) obtained via Sustained Attention to Response Task and Chronotype obtained via Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire. All participants (n = 130) completed the Sustained Attention Task twice: once in the morning and once in the evening while reporting the amount of sleep on the previous night. Subset of the data reported by Van Opstal, Aslanov, and Schnelzer (2021).

Variables: • Chronotype - Chronotype classification based on the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire score

(Morning/Intermediate/Evening). • TimeOfDay - Time of completion of the Sustained Attention to Response Task (Morning: 8AM, Evening: 8.30PM). • Sleep - Amount of sleep on the previous night (in hours). • MWCount - Number of times participants responded as "Off-task" in the Sustained Attention to Response Task. • Subject - Number identifying participants across the repeated measures. • Age - Participants' age. • Gender - Participants' gender. • MEQScore - Participants score on the Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire.

This example JASP file demonstrates the use of the frequentist versions of generalized linear mixed effect models. Specifically, we will test whether mind wandering depends on participants' chronotype and whether the effect is modified by the time when the task is administered.
