Hello,
I am a very beginner with R and mixed-models, so please apologize if you
think my questions are naive.
I am fitting a glmer Poisson, with one variable as random effect
(market) and 2 variables as fixed effects.
My observations are clustered markets, there are 3 markets.
When looking at the variance of the random effect, and it is close to
zero (0.07484).
I would like to know if it is possible to extract the intra-class
correlation coefficient somehow, or if knowing the between market
variance (0.07484) is enough to say that there is almost no clustering.
Thank you very much, I copy the ouput below:
