Greetings, everyone. I've been trying to analyze bird nest survival data using generalized linear mixed models (because we documented several consecutive nesting attempts by the same individuals; i.e. repeated measures data) and have been unable to persuade the various GLMM models to work with my user-defined link function. Actually, glmmPQL seems to work, but as I want to evaluate a suite of

Dear all, I am having a little trouble deciphering how to change the default x-axis labels in a lattice xyplot (or any type of lattice plot for that matter). I have tried using the "demo("labels") function but the code is truncated at precisely the wrong moment! All I am trying to do is to add superscript to two of the labels for which i tried using the expression function. It

I appreciate the help I've been given so far. The issue I face is that the data I'm working with has 53000 rows, so in calculating distance, finding all recids that fall within 2km and summing the population, etc. - a) takes too long and b) have no sense of progress. Below is a loop that reads each recid one at a time, calculates the distance and identifies the recids that fall within 2

I had found the author's (Wolfgang Viechtbauer) earlier meta-analytic code in R, MiMa, useful. so I have been exploring metafor using an example dataset from MiMa. metafor provides a lot more. However, MiMa provided parameter estimates, standard errors, z values, etc. for individual moderators in the meta-analysis, but I don't see how to obtain these from metafor. Have you any help

Hi Dear R-users I have a database with 18000 observations and 20 variables. I am running cox regression on five variables and trying to use survfit to plot the survival based on a specific variable without success. Lets say I have the following coxph: >library(survival) >fit <- coxph(Surv(futime, fustat) ~ age + rx, data = ovarian) >fit what I am trying to do is plot a survival
