R help - Apr 2012 - How to extract overall effect in from glmer object?

Hello,

I am using glmer() from the lme4-package to run generalized linear mixed
models. 

Is there a way to extract the overall variable effects from the model output
object? For example, for linear models using lm() I use the anova() function
to extract these results, however this is not possible for glmer().

Any help is welcome!

Cheers, Thomas

  This would probably be better on r-sig-mixed-models <at> r-project.org

  I think ?drop1 is probably what you're looking for.
