Dear Ashim, Sorry to chime in late, and my apologies if someone has already pointed this out, but here's the relationship between the cell means and the model coefficients, using the row-basis of the model matrix: -------------------------- snip ------------------------> means <- with( warpbreaks, tapply( breaks, interaction(wool, tension), mean ) ) > x.A <- rep(c(0, 1), 3) > x.B1 <- rep(c(0, 1, 0), each=2) > x.B2 <- rep(c(0, 0, 1), each=2) > x.AB1 <- x.A*x.B1 > x.AB2 <- x.A*x.B2 > X.basis <- cbind(1, x.A, x.B1, x.B2, x.AB1, x.AB2) > X.basisx.A x.B1 x.B2 x.AB1 x.AB2 [1,] 1 0 0 0 0 0 [2,] 1 1 0 0 0 0 [3,] 1 0 1 0 0 0 [4,] 1 1 1 0 1 0 [5,] 1 0 0 1 0 0 [6,] 1 1 0 1 0 1> solve(X.basis, means)x.A x.B1 x.B2 x.AB1 x.AB2 44.55556 -16.33333 -20.55556 -20.00000 21.11111 10.55556> coef(aov(breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks))(Intercept) woolB tensionM tensionH woolB:tensionM 44.55556 -16.33333 -20.55556 -20.00000 21.11111 woolB:tensionH 10.55556 -------------------------- snip ------------------------ I hope this helps, John ----------------------------- John Fox, Professor McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario Canada L8S 4M4 Web: socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox> -----Original Message----- > From: R-help [mailto:r-help-bounces at r-project.org] On Behalf Of Ashim Kapoor > Sent: December 3, 2016 12:19 AM > To: David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > Cc: r-help at r-project.org > Subject: Re: [R] Interpreting summary.lm for a 2 factor anova > > Please allow me to rephrase myquery. > > > model.tables(model,"m") > Tables of means > Grand mean > > 28.14815 > > wool > wool > A B > 31.037 25.259 > > tension > tension > L M H > 36.39 26.39 21.67 > > wool:tension > tension > wool L M H > A 44.56 24.00 24.56 > B 28.22 28.78 18.78 > > > > > The above is the same as : > > with( warpbreaks, tapply( breaks, interaction(wool, tension), mean ) ) > A.L B.L A.M B.M A.H B.H > 44.55556 28.22222 24.00000 28.77778 24.55556 18.77778 > > For reference: > > > model <- aov(breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks) > > summary.lm(model) > > Call: > aov(formula = breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks) > > Residuals: > Min 1Q Median 3Q Max > -19.5556 -6.8889 -0.6667 7.1944 25.4444 > > Coefficients: > Estimate Std.

Dear Sir, Many thanks for the explanation. Prior to your email (with some help from a friend of mine) I was able to figure this one out. If we look at the model : - y = intercept + B1.woolB + B2. tensionM + B3.tensionH + B4. woolB.TensionM + B5.woolB.TensionH + error Here woolB, tensionM, tensionH are the dummy indicator variables similar to how you have defined them. Now suppose we consider y1,..,yn, all in group A.L (say). Then y1 + ... + yn = intercept => average(y1,...,yn) = intercept + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0. What was confusing me was how to compute the cell mean in woolB,tensionH cell. If we have y_1,...,y_n all in group B.H then :- y_1+ ... + y_n = intercept + B1 + 0 + B3 + 0 + B5 Therefore average of group B.H = intercept + B1 + B3 + B5 Many thanks and Best Regards, Ashim On Sat, Dec 3, 2016 at 7:15 PM, Fox, John <jfox at mcmaster.ca> wrote:> Dear Ashim, > > Sorry to chime in late, and my apologies if someone has already pointed > this out, but here's the relationship between the cell means and the model > coefficients, using the row-basis of the model matrix: > > -------------------------- snip ------------------------ > > > means <- with( warpbreaks, tapply( breaks, interaction(wool, tension), > mean ) ) > > x.A <- rep(c(0, 1), 3) > > x.B1 <- rep(c(0, 1, 0), each=2) > > x.B2 <- rep(c(0, 0, 1), each=2) > > x.AB1 <- x.A*x.B1 > > x.AB2 <- x.A*x.B2 > > X.basis <- cbind(1, x.A, x.B1, x.B2, x.AB1, x.AB2) > > X.basis > x.A x.B1 x.B2 x.AB1 x.AB2 > [1,] 1 0 0 0 0 0 > [2,] 1 1 0 0 0 0 > [3,] 1 0 1 0 0 0 > [4,] 1 1 1 0 1 0 > [5,] 1 0 0 1 0 0 > [6,] 1 1 0 1 0 1 > > solve(X.basis, means) > x.A x.B1 x.B2 x.AB1 x.AB2 > 44.55556 -16.33333 -20.55556 -20.00000 21.11111 10.55556 > > coef(aov(breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks)) > (Intercept) woolB tensionM tensionH woolB:tensionM > 44.55556 -16.33333 -20.55556 -20.00000 21.11111 > woolB:tensionH > 10.55556 > > -------------------------- snip ------------------------ > > I hope this helps, > John > > ----------------------------- > John Fox, Professor > McMaster University > Hamilton, Ontario > Canada L8S 4M4 > Web: socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: R-help [mailto:r-help-bounces at r-project.org] On Behalf Of Ashim > Kapoor > > Sent: December 3, 2016 12:19 AM > > To: David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net> > > Cc: r-help at r-project.org > > Subject: Re: [R] Interpreting summary.lm for a 2 factor anova > > > > Please allow me to rephrase myquery. > > > > > model.tables(model,"m") > > Tables of means > > Grand mean > > > > 28.14815 > > > > wool > > wool > > A B > > 31.037 25.259 > > > > tension > > tension > > L M H > > 36.39 26.39 21.67 > > > > wool:tension > > tension > > wool L M H > > A 44.56 24.00 24.56 > > B 28.22 28.78 18.78 > > > > > > > > > The above is the same as : > > > > with( warpbreaks, tapply( breaks, interaction(wool, tension), mean ) ) > > A.L B.L A.M B.M A.H B.H > > 44.55556 28.22222 24.00000 28.77778 24.55556 18.77778 > > > > For reference: > > > > > model <- aov(breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks) > > > summary.lm(model) > > > > Call: > > aov(formula = breaks ~ wool * tension, data = warpbreaks) > > > > Residuals: > > Min 1Q Median 3Q Max > > -19.5556 -6.8889 -0.6667 7.1944 25.4444 > > > > Coefficients: > > Estimate Std.
