lmer4 and variable selection
...body temperature
regulation in wintering birds. My original model contains quite a few
dependent variables, but I do not (of course) wish to keep them all in my
final model. I've fitted the following model to the data:
> temp.lme1<-lmer(T.B~tarsus+wing+weight+factor(age)+factor(sex)+fat+minsunset+day1oct+day1oct.2+minnight+ave.day+minnight.1+T.A+ave.night.1+(1|ID)+(1|sign),data=bodytemp.df)
where T.B equals body temperature; explanatories are a number of biometric
measures (tarsus, wing, weight, fat, age, sex) and various measures of
ambient temperature (ave.day, minnight.1, minnight, av...
