I am estimating a three-level model: Persons in PSUs in Countries with melogit. My code is below. The output shows that my clusters are unique at PSU level and are unique from the nation. I have 39103 PSU clusters and 63 nation clusters. However, my ICC is EXACTLY the same. Is there an explanation for this?
melogit termpreg [pw=normwgt] || country: || newidPSU:
