Please note that the case of characters is important in R. Hence
"True"
differs from "TRUE". You need to use REML = TRUE instead of REML =
True!
The only valid logical values are TRUE, FALSE, T and F. But I recommend
to use only TRUE and FALSE. Because you can overwrite T and F. You could
do something like T <- FALSE, which is ofcourse not a good idea. TRUE
and FALSE can not be overwritten.

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more
than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to
say what the experiment died of.

Onderwerp: [R] Help with lme4 model specification
I am new to R and am trying to specify a model for mixed model analysis.
When I run the following model I get an error:
AAT<- lmer(Y ~ S + A + (1|S:A/H), data=AT, REML=True)
The error looks like this:
Error in Spar_loc:`:` : NA/NaN argument
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In model.matrix.default(mt, mf, contrasts) :
variable 'Spar_loc' converted to a factor
2: In Spar_loc:`:` :
numerical expression has 720 elements: only the first used
I am having trouble specifying th random component. It should reflect
the
random term as H nested within the interaction of S & A. What am I
doing
wrong?
:confused:
