a question about linear mixed model in R
...ar all, I have a somewhat unusual linear mixed model that I can't seem to code in lme. It's only unusual in that one random effect is applied only to some of the observations (I have an indicator variable that specifies which observations have this random effect). The model is: X_hijk = alpha_h + h * b_i + r_(ij) + e_hijk , where h = 0 or 1 (indicator) i = 1, ..., N j = 1, ..., n_i k = 1, ..., K alpha is fixed, and the rest are random. I'm willing to assume b, r, and e are mutually independent and normal with var(b) = sigma^2_b, var(r) = sigma^2_r, and var(e) = sigma^2. Any...

aov design questions
...iginal contrasts, but it isn't easy with higher-way anova models. It looks easy in VR2 p 197-204 (BTW I have kroenecker and ginv functions if anyone wants them) but I don't get it to work out nicely. V&R show the contrast transformation as: alpha_T = ginv(C_T) %*% C_H %*% alpha_H where C_T is the contrast matrix for treatment contrasts, and C_H for Helmert contrasts. The alpha's contain only the treatment contrast effects, not the mean. This would leave the intercept estimate unchanged (not right). For single factors it works to stick a col.vector of 1s o...
