When do you use a nested linear model?
Two linear models are Nested if one (the restricted model) is obtained from the other (the full model) by setting some parameters to zero (i.e. removing terms from the model), or some other constraint on the parameters. We can compare nested models fit to the same dataset with the F test.
How to compare two linear models with the F test?

How are nested effects fitted in mixed models?
Nested effects can usually be fitted using the syntax for crossed effects in mixed models, provided that the coding reflects implicit nesting. But the experimental design (either nested or crossed) affects the interpretation of the results.
Do you need a nested likelihood ratio test?
That’s a lot of models. If you’ve ever learned any of these, you’ve heard that some of the statistics that compare model fit in competing models require that models be nested (specifically, the likelihood ratio test, based on model deviance). This is particularly important while you’re trying to do model building.
What are we talking about when we talk about nested models?
While this concept of nesting is the same as the one we’re applying to models, it’s a different application of the concept. So what are we talking about when we talk about nested models?
