Description: Provides functions for visualization and decomposition in
        hierarchical linear models (HLM) for applications in education,
        psychology, and the social sciences. Includes variance
        decomposition for two-level and three-level data structures
        following Snijders and Bosker (2012, ISBN:9781849202015),
        intraclass correlation (ICC) estimation and design effect
        computation as described in Shrout and Fleiss (1979)
        <doi:10.1037/0033-2909.86.2.420>, and contextual effect
        decomposition via the Mundlak (1978) <doi:10.2307/1913646>
        specification distinguishing within- and between-cluster
        components. Supports visualization of random slopes and
        cross-level interactions following Hofmann and Gavin (1998)
        <doi:10.1177/014920639802400504> and Hamaker and Muthen (2020)
        <doi:10.1037/met0000239>. Multilevel models are estimated using
        'lme4' (Bates et al., 2015 <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i01>). An
        optional 'Shiny' application enables interactive exploration of
        model components and parameter variation. The implementation
        follows the multilevel modeling framework of Raudenbush and
        Bryk (2002, ISBN:9780761919049).
