Hi Michael, Thanks for your response. About the data frame not necessary. I correct the code according to your comments. I still get the following warnings : [1] "All values of t are equal to 5.75620151906917 \n Cannot calculate confidence intervals" NULL I have found this on the Net : "Note that boot.ci just gives a warning and returns NA values, if all values are equal. There is no error and if you can work with NAs, there is no need for the if condition. The boot package assumes that the bootstrap statistic has all ways the same dimension. Whenever you have a statistic with less dimensions you get an NA or 0 or whatever you want". The reproducible code : GDP.LOG <-c(14,12,13,15.5,16,17,16.5,13.5,12.5,12) Quality.score <-c(12,11,13,14,15,16,12,10,9,9) Competitivness.score=c(8,6,7,5,6.5,7,8,4.5,6,7) fit <- lm(formula = GDP.LOG ~ Quality.score + Competitivness.score) install.packages("boot") library(boot) bs=function(formula,data,indices){ d=data[indices,] fit=lm(formula,data=d) (coef(fit)) } results=boot(data=Dataset,statistic=bs, R=2000,formula= GDP.LOG ~ Quality.score + Competitivness.score) boot.ci(results,type="bca",index=1) boot.ci(results,type="bca",index=2) boot.ci(results,type="bca",index=3) How is it possible to avoid that warning ?
