Hi R helpers! I have used a glht as a post-hoc test on an lmer with: -2 treatments (A & B) -1 categorical explanatory variable (song type) -1 response variable (latency to respond) I wanted to make comparisons between the categorical variables depending on treatment. At the moment the glht simply returns comparisons of each of the (3) categorical explanatory variables with each other

Hi, I have searched the archives and can't quite confirm the answer to this. I appreciate your time... I have 4 treatments (fixed) and I would like to know if there is a significant difference in metal volume (metal) between the treatments. The experiment has 5 blocks (random) in each treatment and no block is repeated across treatments. Within each plot there are varying numbers of

Dear, I want to analyze an outcome in an RCT using lme but I am not sure that I have chosen the right way for the model. We measured the outcome three times repeatedly in the same patient. One time before intervention and two times after intervention. I wanted to adjust for the correlated data in the repeated measurement and baseline differences in the variable in order to get the treatment

Hi everyone, I am trying to analyse my data from a small plant experiment (for a meeting tomorrow afternoon) and am a beginner to R so I apologise if this is a very basic question. I carried out a plant experiment examining plant interactions between two species (A and B) under different watering treatments. I had: - 7 watering treatments (7 different watering frequencies labelled 1-7) - 3

Hi, I performed an experiment where I raised different families coming from two different source populations, where each family was split up into a different treatments. After the experiment I measured several traits on each individual. To test for an effect of either treatment or source as well as their interaction, I used a linear mixed effect model with family as random factor, i.e.

Dear all, I'm working on some data from an experiment on the breeding behavior of birds. In short, I have been measuring how the time spent on performing a certain task (variable 'mean_on_active') differs over time (variable 'day', 2 levels) across three experimental categories (variable 'treat'; levels 'C', 'R', 'E'). The model shows a

Hi All, I would like to ask a question on fixed and random effecti in lme. I am fiddlying around Mick Crawley dataset "rats" : http://www.bio.ic.ac.uk/research/mjcraw/statcomp/data/ The advantage is that most work is already done in Crawley's book (page 361 onwards) so I can check what I am doing. I am tryg to reproduce the nested analysis on page 368:

Hello and thanks in advance I am running a glm in R the code is as follows with residual diagnostic code below model4<-glm(Biomass~(Treatment+Time+Site)^2, data=bobB, family=quasi(link="log", variance="mu")) par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(model2) to test the effect of grazing exclusion of feral horses for a Phd with following factors: Treatment - 3 levels which are grazed

Hello, I am trying to determine the most appropriate way to run post-hoc comparisons on my lme model. I had originally planned to use Tukey HSD method as I am interested in all possible comparisons between my treatment levels. TukeyHSD, however, does not work with lme. The only other code that I was able to find, and which also seems to be widely used, is glht specified with Tukey:

Hi, I posted the message below last week, but no answers, so I'm giving it another attempt in case somebody who would be able to help might have missed it and it has now dropped off the end of the list of mails. I am fairly new to R and still trying to figure out how it all works, and I have run into a few issues. I apologize in advance if my questions are a bit basic, I'm also no

Sorry, I just posted the email below but realised I did not give a name or details, would it be possible to adjust before posting and send what is below, sorry again, first time user...

Hello all R listers, I'm struggling to select an appropriate statistical method for my data set. I have collected soil moisture measurements every hour for 2 years. There are 75 sensors taking these automated measurements, spread evenly across 4 treatments and a control. I'm not interested in being able to predict soil future soil moisture trends, but rather in knowing whether the

Dear all, Suppose I have a linear mixed-effects model (from the package nlme) with nested random effects (see below); how would I present the results from the random effects part in a publication? Specifically, I?d like to know: (1) What is the total variance of the random effects at each level? (2) How can I test the significance of the variance components? (3) Is there something like an

All, The code below is for a pseudo dataset of repeated measures on patients where there is also a treatment factor called "drug". Time is treated as categorical. What code is necessary to test for a treatment effect at a single time point, e.g., time = 3? Does the answer matter if the design is a crossover design, i.e, each patient received drug and placebo? Finally, what would

Hello I am trying to fit a REML to some soil mineral data which has been collected over the time period 1999 - 2004. I want to know if the 19 different treatments imposed, differ in terms of their soil mineral content. A tree model of the data has shown differences between the treatments can be attributed to the Magnesium, Potassium and organic matter content of the soil, with Magnesium being the

I am analyzing a dataset on the effects of six pesticides on population growth rate of a predatory mite. The response variable is the population growth rate of the mite (ranges from negative to positive) and the exploratory variable is a categorical variable (treatment). The experiment was blocked in time (3 blocks / replicates per block) and it is unbalanced - at least 1 replicate per block. I am

Dear R list: I modelled changes in a variable (mconc) over time (d) for individuals (replicate) given one of three treatments (treatment) using: mconc.lme <- lme(mconc~treatment*poly(d,2), random=~poly(d,2)|replicate, data=my.data) summary(mconc.lme) shows that the linear coefficient of one of the treatments is significantly different to zero, viz. Value Std.Error

Hi, I'm analysing a dataset in which the same 5 subjects (male.pair) were subjected to two treatments (treatment) and were measured for 12 successive days within each treatment (layingday). Overall 5*2*12=120 observations. I want to test the effect of treatment, time (layingday) and their interaction. I have done so through the ANOVA below: >

Dear R-users, I am trying to analyse the data of the box 10.5 in the Biometry from Sokal and Rohlf (2001) using R. This is a three-level nested anova with equal sample size : 3 different treatments are compared ; 2 rats (coded 1 or 2) / treatment are studied ; 3 preparations (coded 1, 2 or 3) / rats are available ; 2 readings of the glycogen content / preparations are realised.
