similar to: Confidence Intervals for slopes

Hi, I have a question about the computation of confidence intervals in the zyp package, in particular using the functions zyp.sen and confint.zyp, or zyp.yuepilon. (1) I'm a bit confused about the confidence intervals given by zyp.sen and confint.zyp. When I request a certain confidence interval in the function, the R output seems to deliver another confidence interval, e.g. when I set

I?m entirely stumped on this particular issue and really hoping someone has some advice for me. I am running a covariant model in lm I would like to give the standard errors or the confidence intervals for the fitted lines. I?ve been using the dataset OrangeSprays where I want lines for each level of treatment over the covariant ?colpos?. I?ve been able to calculate intercepts and slopes for

Please forgive a rather na??ve question... Could someone please give a quick explanation for the differences in conf intervals achieved via confint.glm (based on profile liklihoods) and the intervals achieved using the Design library. For example, the intervals in the following two outputs are different. library(Design) x = rnorm(100) y = gl(2,50) d = data.frame(x = x, y = y) dd = datadist(d);

Hi R People: If I have a fitted values from a model, how do I plot the (1-alpha)100% confidence intervals along with the fitted values, please? Also, if the intervals are "shaded" gray, that would be nice too, please? I check confint, but that doesn't seem to do what I want. Thanks in advance, Sincerely, Erin -- Erin Hodgess Associate Professor Department of Computer and

Hi list, is there any direct way to obtain confidence intervals for the regression slope from lm, predict.lm or the like? (If not, is there any reason? This is also missing in some other statistics softwares, and I thought this would be quite a standard application.) I know that it's easy to implement but it's for explanation to people who faint if they have to do their own programming...

Hi all! I'm getting a model fit from glm() (a binary logistic regression fit, but I don't think that's important) for a formula that contains powers of the explanatory variable up to fourth. So the fit looks something like this (typing into mail; the actual fit code is complicated because it involves step-down and so forth): x_sq <- x * x x_cb <- x * x * x x_qt <- x * x * x

Hello, I'm a newcomer to R so please forgive me if this is a silly question. It's that I have a linear regression: fm <- lm (x ~ y) and I want to test whether the slope of the regression is significantly less than 1. How can I do this in R? I'm also interested in comparing the slopes of two regressions: fm1 <- lm (x ~ y) fm2 <- lm (a ~ b) and asking if the slope of fm1 is

Hi I use gnls to fit non linear models of the form y = alpha * x**beta (alpha and beta being linear functions of a 2nd regressor z i.e. alpha=a1+a2*z and beta=b1+b2*z) with variance function varPower(fitted(.)) which sounds correct for the data set I use. My purpose is to use the fitted models for predictions with other sets of regressors x, z than those used in fitting. I therefore need to

Hi everyone, apologies if the answer to this is in an obvious place. I've been searching for about a day and haven't found anything.. I'm trying to replicate Stata's confidence intervals in R with the survey package, and the numbers are very very close but not exact. My ultimate goal is to replicate Berkeley's SDA website with R (http://sda.berkeley.edu/), which seems to

Hi, I would be very grateful for advice on getting confidence intervals for the ordinary (non smoothed) parameter estimates from a gam. Motivation I am studying hospital outcomes in a large data set. The outcomes of interest to me are all binary variables. The one in the example here, Dead30d, is death within 30 days of admission. Sexf is gender (M or F), Age is age in years at the start

Dear R community, In the excellent nlme package the default diagnostic plot graphs the innermost residuals against innermost fitted values. I recently fit a mixed-effects model in which there was a very clear positive linear trend in this plot. I inferred that this trend occurred because my fixed effect was a two-level factor, and my random effect was a 12-level factor. The negative residuals

System: R 2.3.1 on Windows XP machine.

Hi All, I am confused with SMATR's test for common slope. My null hypothesis here is that all slopes are parallel (common slopes?), right? So if I get a p value < 0.05 means that we can have confidence to reject it? That slopes are different? Or the other way around? it means that we have statistical confidence that the slopes are parallel? thanks -- Eugenio Larios PhD Student University

I am unable to calculate confidence intervals for the slope estimate in a quasibinomial glm using confint(). Below is the output and the package info for MASS. Thanks in advance!

dear all, I apologize for my delay in replying you. Here my contribution, maybe just for completeness: Similar to "earth", "segmented" also fits piecewise linear relationships with the number of breakpoints being selected by the AIC or BIC (recommended). #code (example and code from Martin Maechler previous email) library(segmented) o<-selgmented(y, ~x, Kmax=20,

Hello, We've got a dataset with several variables, one of which we're using to split the data into 3 smaller subsets. (as the variable takes 1 of 3 possible values). There are several more variables too, many of which we're using to fit regression models using lm. So I have 3 models fitted (one for each subset of course), each having slope estimates for the predictor variables.

Hello, I am doing a simple linear regression analysis that includes few variables. I am using a bootstrap analysis to obtain the variation of my variables to replacement. I am trying to obtain the coefficients 95% confidence interval from the bootstrap procedure. Here is my script for the bootstrap: N = length (data_Pb[,1]) B = 10000 stor.r2 = rep(0,B) stor.r2 = rep(0,B) stor.inter =

Hello all, I have to run a 2 Sample Confidence Interval on some data; the command for such intervals is "confint(...)", but in the help documentation it says that you need a "fitted model object" in order to run this command. What does that mean? The data is very small, it's: x=c(8,12,10,14,2,0,0) y=c(-6,0,1,2,-3,-4,2) and I want to be able to run a Confidence
