Hello, I just trying to play around with very simple generalized models and have tried the following model : glm(count~t1*t2,family=poisson()) on data from Jim Lindsey's book : change count t1 t2 1 45 1 1 2 13 1 2 3 12 2 1 4 54 2 2 I get : Call: glm(formula = change$count ~ change$t1 * change$t2, family = poisson()) Coefficients: (Intercept) change$t12 change$t22 3.807 -1.322 -1.242 change$t12.change$t22 2.746 Degrees of Freedom: 3 Total (i.e. Null); 0 Residual Null Deviance: 48.11 Residual Deviance: 6.596e-16 AIC: 28.23 My question is : how the AIC value is computed here? Because the deviance is null, I expected an AIC of 2p = 8. But I'm probably missing something.
