similar to: binomial lmer and fixed effects

Hi folks, Warning: I don't know if the result I am getting makes sense, so this may be a statistics question. The fitted values from my binomial lmer mixed model seem to consistently overestimate the cell means, and I don't know why. I assume I am doing something stupid. Below I include code, and a binary image of the data is available at this link:

Hi folks, I am tearing my hair out on this one. I am using an example from Pinheiro and Bates. ### this works data(Orange) mod.lis <- nlsList(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange ) ### This works mod <- nlme(circumference ~ SSlogis(age, Asymp, xmid, scal), data=Orange, fixed = Asymp + xmid + scal ~ 1, start =

Dear R users, I am trying to get data from the clipboard into R on MacOSX. I tried the following, but got an error message: read.delim("clipboard") Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message: unable to contact X11 display Obviously, I'm not running R using X11. I'm wondering, can I import data from the clipboard on MacosX?

Dear All, I am working with linear mixed-effects models using the lme4 package in R. I created a model with the lmer function including some main effects, a two-way interaction and a random effect. Now I am searching how I could incorporate an interaction between the random effect and one of the fixed effects. I tried to express the interaction in:

Hi All, I am running R 2.2.0 on Mac OS 10.4.2, dual G5 processors with 8 Gig RAM. I am running a simulation with lsoda that requires ~378 s to complete one set of time intervals. I need to optimize the parameters, and so need to considerably speed up the simulation. I have tried to figure out how to change the appropriate memory allocation and have search R help and Introductory

Hi Folks, How do I get red bold font on my y axis and black standard font on my x axis? plot(runif(10), ylab="Red, Bold?", xlab="Black, standard?") Any pointers or examples would be great. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am trying to construct a glm and am running into a couple of questions. The data set I am using consists of 6 categories for the response and 6 independent predictors representing nutrient concentrations at sample point locations. Ultimately I'd like to use the probabilities for each response category in a simulation model such that these probabilities are used to define a

Hi Folks, I was wondering what everyone thought about adding a sentence to each package update announcement that described what the package did. R extensions are so numerous that it is difficult to keep up with them. Would it be appropriate to ask package developers to add a brief sentence about what the package does, when they announce updates? I would benefit from such descriptions.

How do I cite a package (not R itself - I know how to do that)? Any thoughts or links? Many thanks in advance? Hank Stevens Dr. Martin Henry H.

My apologies in advance for my thickness but I can't seem to solve the following, seemingly simple, data manipulation problem: I have a data frame that contains multiple factors and multiple continuous response variables, but duplicates of some factor combinations. The duplicates contain bad data, so I would like to eliminate the duplicates. I would like to retain the entire rows

Mac OS 10.3.5, R 2.0.0 latest version of geoR I have an incomplete 5 x 20 spatial array of samples (60 out of 100 possible locations) for which I would like to calculate directional variograms using variog4(). Unfortunately, I can't get it to return all 4 directions. It returns variograms for 45, 90, and 135 degrees, omitting 0 degrees (pi/4, pi/2, 3pi/4, omitting 0). If I specify 0

Hi - I am getting different results when I run the numerical integrator function lsoda (odesolve package) on a Mac and a PC. I am trying to simulating a system of 10 ODE's with two exogenous pulsed inputs to the system, and have had reasonably good success with many model parameter sets. Under some parameter sets, however, the simulations fail on the Mac (see error message below). The

Hello all: I frequently have glm models in which the residual variance is much lower than the residual degrees of freedom (e.g. Res.Dev=30.5, Res.DF = 82). Is it appropriate for me to use a quasipoisson error distribution and test it with an F distribution? It seems to me that I could stand to gain a much-reduced standard error if I let the procedure estimate my dispersion factor (which

R v. 1.7.1, Windows 2000. A particular journal wants me to provide scatter plots with no box, but with axes that meet in the lower left corner. It seems as though there must be an easy way of doing this, but my reading the help on plot.default, axis, and box have not provided any clues. I would be most appreciative of any feedback. Thank you, Hank Stevens Dr. Martin Henry H. Stevens,

Hello. I'm running a generalized linear model and am interested in using the random effects that are output for further analysis. My random effect is interacting with two different fixed effects (which which are factors with two levels each). When I retrieve the random effects I get something like this: (Intercept) nutrient (Intercept) light (Intercept) Aa-0 0.59679192
