(lme4) p-values for single terms in mixed models involved in sig interactions
...ues are over inflated for the single terms), or whether to remove the interaction from the minimum adequate model, and then compare this to an updated model, with the single term removed.
This is an example of what the model would look like:
library(lme4)
minadequatemodel<-lmer(sq_rate~(day+temp+brood_size+weight+weight:brood_size+(1|ident),data=prov,REML=FALSE)
##to get p values for e.g. temp
pvalmodtemp<-update(minadequatemodel,~.+temp)
anova(modelfin,modeltemp)
###but what's the correct way to get p value for brood_size or weight?
Your help would be greatly appreciated...thanks!
