Specify contrasts in R
...iment)?
Desired contrasts are
1) P1 versus P2
2) average of P1 and P2 versus F1
3) average of P1 and P2 versus F2
levels(MyData$Type)
"P1", "F1", "F2","P2"
(I have renamed these A, B, C, D in the actual data so they appear in the order above)
Contrast matrix:
contr_mat<-cbind(
c(1,0,0,-1),
c(-1,2,0,-1),
c(-1,0,2,-1))
contrasts(MyData$Type)<-contr_mat
Model:
mod<-lm(Trait~Type,data=MyData)
Also, I would ideally like to run this in lme with a random effect for Block
mod2<-lme(Trait~Type,random=~1|Block,data=MyData)
Each treatment appears once...
