Hi, For some reason do.call on anova fails if the models are named lmer objects. Consider the following example: library(lme4) models <- list( lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (1| Subject), sleepstudy), lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days | Subject), sleepstudy)) # # models is an unnamed list, do.call works (although with warning): do.call(anova, models) # # after labeling the models, do.call gives an

Dear lmer-ers, My thanks for all of you who are sharing your trials and tribulations publicly. I was hoping to elicit some feedback on my thoughts on denominator degrees of freedom for F ratios in mixed models. These thoughts and practices result from my reading of previous postings by Doug Bates and others. - I start by assuming that the appropriate denominator degrees lies between n

Dear Madam or Sir I am writing you hoping, that you can help me with a problem concerning the output of regressions done with the function lme in R. I would need the standard deviations for intercepts and predictors, but in the output I can only find those for the intercepts. Could it be, that this is my fault? (I am just a beginner with R and multilevel modeling). I am sorry to annoy you with
