Try this data(Assay) as1 <- lme(logDens~sample*dilut, data=Assay, random=pdBlocked(list( pdIdent(~1), pdIdent(~sample-1), pdIdent(~dilut-1)))) update(as1,random=pdCompSymm(~sample-1)) update(as1,random=pdCompSymm(~sample-1)) update(as1,random=pdCompSymm(~sample-1)) update(as1,random=pdCompSymm(~sample-1)) I'm

Dear R users: I have some difficulties analizing data with mixed effects NLME and the last version of R. More concretely, I have a repeated measures design with a single group and 2 experimental factors (say A and B) and my interest is to compare additive and nonadditive models. suj rv A B 1 s1 4 a1 b1 2 s1 5 a1 b2 3 s1 7 a1 b3 4 s1 1 a2

Consider the Assay data where block, sample within block and dilut within block is random. This model can be fitted with (where I define Assay2 to get an ordinary data frame rather than a grouped data object): Assay2 <- as.data.frame(Assay) fm2<-lme(logDens~sample*dilut, data=Assay2, random=list(Block = pdBlocked(list(pdIdent(~1), pdIdent(~sample-1),pdIdent(~dilut-1))) )) Now, block

I've posted the following to R-help on May 15. It has reproducible R code for real data -- and a real (academic, i.e unpaid) consultion background. I'd be glad for some insight here, mainly not for myself. In the mean time, we've learned that it is to be expected for anova(*, "marginal") to be contrast dependent, but still are glad for advice if you have experience. Thank

Dear R-help group, How can I define a lme with 3 factors(a,b,c), where c is nested in b, and a is crossed with b/c? I think that: lme(response ~ ..., data = Data, random = pdBlocked(list(pdIdent(~ a - 1), pdIdent(~ b - 1)))) is one part of the answer and: lme(response~..., data=Data, random=~1|b/c) is the other part of the answer but how can I combine them?? Could anybody please help

Hi, all, I have a question about random effects model. I am dealing with a three-factor experiment dataset. The response variable y is modeled against three factors: Samples, Operators, and Runs. The experimental design is as follow: 4 samples were randomly chosen from a large pool of test samples. Each of the 4 samples was analyzed by 4 operators, randomly selected from a group of

I have been using lme from nlme to do a 3-way anova with all the effects treated as random. I was wondering if someone could direct me to an example of how to do this using lmer from lme4. I have 3 main effects, tim, trt, ctr, and all the interaction effects tim*trt*ctr. The response variable is ge. Here is my lme code: dat <-

Dear all, I am trying to fit a model with crossed random effects using lme. In this experiment, I have been measuring oxygen consumption (mlmin) in bird nestlings, originating from three different treatments (treat), in a respirometer with 7 different channels (ch). I have also measured body mass (mass) for these birds. id nest treat year mlmin mass ch hack 1EP51711 17

Hi, I have a data set on germination and plant growth with the following variables: dataset=fm mass (response) sub (fixed effect) moist (fixed effect) pop (fixed effect) mum (random effect nested within population) iheight (covariate) plot (random effect- whole plot factor for split-plot design). I want to see if moist or sub interacts with mum for any of the pops, but I am getting an error

Moi! I was helping to teach a course on mixed models this week, and we came across a problem with coding more than one random effect in lme when they aren't nested. As an example, suppose we have an experiment where we sample moths from several populations, and place the moths on different trees, and measure a trait (in this case survival of offspring, but that's less important). We

I have used lme() on data from a between-within subjects experiment. The correct ANOVA table is known because this is a textbook example (Experimental Design by Roger Kirk Chapter 12: Split-Plot Factorial Design). The lme() F-values differ from the known results. Please help me understand why. d<-read.table("kirkspf2.dat",header=TRUE) for(j in 1:4) d[,j] <- factor(d[,j]) ### Make

Hi dear R-listers, I'm trying to fit a 3-level model using lme in R. My sample size is about 2965 and 3 factors: year (5 levels), ssize (4 levels), condition (2 levels). When I issue the following command: > lme(var~year*ssize*condition,random=~ssize+condition|subject,data=smp,method ="ML") I got the following error: Error in logLik.lmeStructInt(lmeSt, lmePars) :

Hello, I have used nlme to fit a model, the R syntax is like fmla0<-as.formula(paste("~",paste(colnames(ldata[,9:13]),collapse="+"),"-1")) > fmla1<-as.formula(paste("~",paste(colnames(ldata[,14:18]),collapse="+"),"-1")) >

1) I have the following data situation: 96 plots 12 varieties 2 time points 2 technical treatments the experiment is arranged as follows: a single plot has two varieties tested on it. if variety A on plot #1 has treatment T1 applied to it, then variety B on plot #1 has treatment T2 applied to it. across the whole experiment variety A is exposed to treatment T1 the same number of times as

I am doing an analysis and would like to use lme() and the multcomp package to do multiple comparisons. My design is a within subjects design with three crossed fixed factors (every participant sees every combination of three fixed factors A,B,C). Of course, I can use aov() to analyze this with an error term (leaving out the obvious bits): y ~ A*B*C+Error(Subject/(A*B*C)) I'd also like

Hello R users: I am fairly new to R and am trying to figure out how to compute an intraclass correlation (ICC) and/or design effect for binary data? More specifically, I am trying to determine the amount of clustering in a data set - that is, whether certain treatment programs tend to work with more or less severe clients. The outcome variable is dichotomous (low severity / high severity)

I'm a SAS user who is slowly but surely migrating over to R. I'm trying to find the proper code to analyze a nested design. I have four classification variables, L (fixed), A (random within L), D (random within L), and I (random within L). The model I'm interested in is L A(L) D(L) I(L) A:D:I(L), where the interaction is interpreted as the lack-of-fit term. I've tried

Dear friends, I have asked last few days about cross-random effects using PQL, but I have not receive any answer because might my question was not clear. My question was about analysing the salamander mating data using PQL. This data contain cross-random effects for (male) and for (female). By opining MASS and lme library. I wrote this code sala.glmm <- glmmPQL(fixed=y~WSf*WSM,

I need to specify a model similar to this lme.formula(fixed = sqrt(lbPerAc) ~ y + season + y:season, data = cy, random = ~y | observer/set, correlation = corARMA(q = 6)) except that observer and set are actually crossed instead of nested. observer and set are factors y and lbPerAc are numeric If you know how to do it or have suggestions for reading I will be grateful. eal ps I have
