Hi, I have two datasets stored in tab-separated format in the following way file1: country year1 year2 Germany var1 var1 Hungary var1 var1 file2: country year1 year2 Germany var2 var2 Hungary var2 var2 I can easily read in these files, but how can I merge them as a panel dataset? Thanks, Viktor

Dear R Experts, I am trying to produce a legend for a series of plots which are generated in a loop. The legend is supposed to look like this: 2000: gamma=1.8 where gamma is replaced by the greek letter and both the year and the value of gamma are stored in variables. Everything works fine as long as I have only one data series: year = 2001 g = 1.9 plot(1) legend('top',

Hello, I am currently analyzing responses to questionnaires about general attitudes. I have performed a PCA on my data, and have retained two Principal Components. Now I would like to use the scores of both the principal comonents in a multiple regression. I would like to know if it makes sense to use the scores of one principal component to explain the variance in the scores of another principal

I am graphing longitudinal data from three time points. I'd like to draw a solid line from point 1 to point 2, and then a dashed line from point 2 to point 3. It works if I do it in two steps: > first.vector <- c(mean(year1$variable1), mean(year2$variable1)) > second.vector <- c(NA, mean(year2$variable1), mean(year3$variable1)) > plot(first.vector, type="b",

I need to apply a yearly inflation factor to some wages and supply some simple sums by work category. I have gone at it with a brute force "for" loop approach which seems okay as it is a small dataset. It looks a bit inelegant and given all the warnings in the Intro to R, etc, about using loops I wondered if anyone could suggest something a bit simpler or more efficent? Example:

Good day, For lack of a better solution (or perhaps I am ignorant to something more elegant), I have been bootstrapping panel data by hand so to speak and I would like to know if there is a way to define multiple variables in a loop using the loop variable. I found a post (here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2002-October/026305.html ) that discussed naming multiple variables but it

Hello, I?m hoping you have a few minutes to help out someone very new to R. I?ve done some searching, but cannot find this particular issue. I have survey data from two different time periods (years). Both years are stratified samples and have the same variables (and variable names), but are different people in the community answering in the different years. Everything loads into the survey

Hi R-helpers, My real data is a panel (unbalanced and with gaps in years) of thousands of firms, by year and industry, and with financial information (variables X, Y, Z, for example), the number of firms by year and industry is not always equal, the number of years by industry is not always equal. #reproducible example firm1<-sort(rep(1:10,5),decreasing=F) year1<-rep(2000:2004,10)

I would like to know how I can assign a name to a name. I have a dataset that has different years in it. I am writing scripts using R and I would like to give a month a generic name and then use the generic name to do different analysis. The reason for the generic name would be so that I only have to change one thing if I wanted to change the year. For example. Year1 = 1999 datayear <-

Hi everyone I have the following problem: My dataframe has 3 variables: ID, Year and and an outcome variable. The dataframe contains repeated measurements because the subjects filled out a questionnaire every year. The time span covers 2 years. Now I want to check if there is a significant change in the outcome over the 2 years with a paired wilcox.test. The problem: Not every subject

Dear All, I am working with a generalized linear mixed-effects model with poisson error using the lme4 package in R. I created a model with the lmer function including some main effects, three two way interactions and two random effects. The model works well, but I have troubles when removing on of the two-way interactions. The Warning message: "In mer_finalize(ans) : false convergence

I am having a hard time putting the below into a loop, where it pulls out ppt from all he stations I have versus having to go through and hard code the data to the specific stations. I tried stnID <- stnid[which(duplicated(stnid)==FALSE)] for(i in 1:length(stnID)) { ppt[i] <- ppt[which(stnid==[i])] } but it doesn't like to use the which function inside a for loop? Any idea's here is

Hi all! I am fitting a Poisson model, using the following command: > fit2<-glm(canc~id1+year1+time+lnpa,family=poisson) where 'id1', 'year1' and 'time' are factors. I defined them with: > id1<-C(factor(id1), treatment) and 'lnpa' is a continuous variable. The 'summary' function gives me all the effects estimates, that is, for id1, I

Hi all, I want to arrange two ggplot2 plots on the same page with their x-axes lined up - even though one is a boxplot and the other is a line plot. Is there a simple way to do this? I know I could do this using facetting if they were both the same type of plot (for example, if they were both boxplots), but I haven't been able to figure it out for two different types of plots. Below is my

Dear R help, I'm working with regular 8-daily time-series from 2000 up till now and would like to be able to compare years with each other. E.g. by creating a monthplot via the result of the stl() method it looks ok> but I was wondering whether there exist other methods to plot the different years as lines on top of each other such that years can be compared with each other (temporal
