Dear R users, I have a problem with multicollinearity in mixed models and I am using lmer in package lme4. From previous mailing list, I learn of a reply "http://www.mail-archive.com/r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch/msg38537.html" which states that if not for interpretation but just for prediction, multicollinearity does not matter much. However, I am using mixed model to interpret something,

Dear everyone, I'm student of Masters in Statistics (Actuarial) from Central University of Rajasthan, India. I am doing a major project work as a part of the degree. My major project deals with fitting a glm model for the data of car insurance. I'm facing the problem of multicollinearity for this data which is visible by the plotting of data. But I'm not able to test it. In the case

Dear R users, Usually the variance-inflation factor, which is based on R^2, is used as a measure for multicollinearity. But, in contrast to OLS regression there is no robust R^2 available for MM-regressions in R. Do you know if an equivalent or an alternative nmeasure of multicollinearity is available for MM-regression in R? With best regards, Carsten Colombier Dr. Carsten Colombier Economist

I think you've badly misinterpreted the purpose of the R listserv with this request: https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help says "The `main' R mailing list, for announcements about the development of R and the availability of new code, questions and answers about problems and solutions using R, enhancements and patches to the source code and documentation of R,

Hi there, I really tried hard to understand and find my own solution, but now I think I have to ask for your help. I already developed some script code for my problem but I doubt that it is correct. I have the following problem: Image you develop a logistic regression model with a binary outcome Y (0/1) with possible preditors (X1,X2,X3......). The development of the final model would be

Hello to everyone. I´m writing you because I´m feeling a bit frustrated with my work. My work consists in finding the relation between the amount of fires and the weather, so, my response variable is the amount of fires in a fire season and the explanatory variables are the temperature, the amount of precipitation and the some others…. my problem is this; I keep getting the wrong sign in the

Dear all, I have one dependent variable y and two independent variables x1 and x2 which I would like to use to explain y. x1 and x2 are design factors in an experiment and are not correlated with each other. For example assume that: x1 <- rbind(1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3) x2 <- rbind(1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3) cor(x1,x2) The problem is that I do not only want to analyze the effect of x1 and x2 on y but

Hi I have a set of data with both quantitative and categorical predictors. After scaling of response variable, i looked for multicollinearity (VIF values) among the predictors and removed the predictors who were hinding some of the other significant predictors. I'm curious to know whether the predictors (who are not significant) while doing simple 'lm' will be involved in

I have been making simple functions to display regressions in a new package called "rockchalk". For 3d illustrations, my functions use persp, and I've grown to like working with it. As an example of the kind of things I like to do, you might consult my lecture on multicollinearity, which is by far the most detailed illustration I've prepared.

Hi, I'm trying to fit regression model, but there is something wrong with it. The dataset contains 85 observations for 85 students.Those observations are counts of several actions, and dependent variable is final score. More precisely, I have 5 IV and one DV. I'm trying to build regression model to check whether those variables can predict the final score. I'm attaching output of

I''m running brglm with binomial loguistic regression. The perhaps multicollinearity-related feature(s) are: (1) the k IVs are all binary categorical, coded as 0 or 1; (2) each row of the IVs contains exactly C (< k) 1''s; (3) k IVs, there are n * k unique rows; (4) when brglm is run, at least 1 IV is reported as involving a singularity. I''ve tried recoding the n

Hello I found some small postings dated to 22 Oct 2008 on the message subject. Recently, I have been working with binary logistic regressions. I didn't use the design package. Yet, I needed the "fit" indices. Therefore, I wrote a small function to output the Nagelkerke's R, and the Cox-&-Snell R from a fitted model. I am no professional programmer by far, yet, I hope, that

hello dear list! since we want to do a model analysis and some people would like to see pseudo-R^2 values for different types of glm of a logistic regression, i've decided to write a function that computes either nagelkerkes normed pseudo-R or cox & snells pseudo-R. however, i am not clear as in the decisive step, i need to calculate the log of (maximum likelihood estimates of model

I am interested Andrea is whether you ever established why your R2 was 1. I have had a similar situation previously. My main issue though, which I'd be v grateful for advice on, is why I am obtaining such negative values -0.3 for Somers Dxy using validate.cph from the Design package given my value of Nagelkerke R2 is not so low 13.2%. I have this output when fitting 6 variables all with

Dear all,  I hope this is the right place to ask this question. I am reviewing a research where the analyst(s) are using a linear regression model. The dependent variable (DV) is a continuous measure. The independent variables (IVs) are a mixture of linear and categorical variables. The author investigates whether performance (DV - continuous linear) is a function of age (continuous IV1 -

Hi, could someone help me with dilemma on the simulation of logistic regressiondata with multicollinearity effect and high leverage point.. Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I am using GLM to calculate logit models based on cross-sectional data. I am now down to the hard work of making the results intelligible to very average readers. Is there any way to calculate a psuedo analoque to the R^2 in standard linear regression for use as a purely descriptive statistic of goodness of fit? Most of the readers of my report will be vaguely familiar and more comfortable with

Hi all, I'm working on a multinomial (or "polytomous") logistic regression using R and have made great progress using multinom() from the nnet library. My response variable has three categories, and there are two different possible predictors. I'd like to use the likelihoods of certain models (ie, saturated, fitteds, and null) to calculate Nagelkerke R-squared values for
