Hi, I've got a linear mixed model created using lmer: A6mlm <- lmer(Score ~ division + (1|school), data=Age6m) (To those of you to whom this model looks familiar, thanks for your patience with this & my other questions.) Anyway, I was trying this to look at the significance of my fixed effects: A6post <- mcmcsamp(A6mlm, 50000) library(coda) HPDinterval(A6post) ..but I got this

Dear r-helpers, Following up on http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/ 81159.html where Douglas Bates gives a helpful application of lmer() to data(sleepstudy, package = 'lme4'), I need a bit more help in order to plot the correct confidence intervals of a designed experiment such as: > data(ratdrink, package = 'faraway') I follow the steps Douglas took in

Dear all, I'm not 100% sure if this question is best directed at the r-list, or a mailing list concerned with Bayesian analysis, so please accept my apologies if another audience may be more appropriate. I have been using the rjags package to run Jags models with multiple chains and store the results in a Coda based mcmc list. For instance, having created a jags model and done initial

Hi all R mailing listers: I am using the coda package. I tried to view the source of HPDinterval code by typing fix(HPDinterval), it dispalys as follows: function (obj, prob = 0.95, ...) UseMethod("HPDinterval") Then I search the answers about this case (see below), it still failed. Thank you in advance! David > getAnywhere('HPDinterval')2 differing objects matching

(To the list moderator: I just subscribed to the list. Apologies for not having done so longer before trying to post.) Hi all, I am currently using lmer to analyze data from an experiment with a single fixed factor (treatment, 6 levels) and a single random factor (block). I've been trying to follow the online guidance for estimating p-values for parameter estimates on these and other

The following I do not understand, but then I did'nt really use S4 methods ... > showMethods(plot) Function: plot (package graphics) x="ANY" x="lmList.confint" x="merMCMC" (inherited from: x="ANY") > plot(x=moda0MCMC) Error in as.double(y) : cannot coerce type 'S4' to vector of type 'double' > class(moda0MCMC) [1]

Hi folks, I have assumed that ratios of variance components (Fst and Qst in population genetics) could be estimated using the output of mcmcsamp (the series on mcmc sample estimates of variance components). What I have started to do is to use the matrix output that included the log(variances), exponentiate, calculate the relevant ratio, and apply either quantile or or HPDinterval to get

Dear R users, I have now tried out several options of obtaining p-values for (quasi)poisson lmer models, including Markov-chain Monte Carlo sampling and single-term deletions with subsequent chi-square tests (although I am aware that the latter may be problematic). However, I encountered several problems that can be classified as (1) the quasipoisson lmer model does not give p-values when

Hi, Can anyone tell me why I am not getting the correct intervals for fixed effect terms for the following generalized linear mixed model from HPDinterval: > sessionInfo() R version 2.4.1 (2006-12-18) i386-pc-mingw32 locale: LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252

Hi! I am trying to calculate HPD for the coeficients of regression models fitted with lm or lmrob in R, pretty much in the same way that can be accomplished by the association of mcmcsamp and HPDinterval functions for multilevel models fitted with lmer. Can anyone point me in the right direction on which packages/how to implement this? Thanks for your time! R. [[alternative HTML version

I've been running a glmer logit on a very large data set (600k obs). Running on a 10% subset works correctly, but for the complete data set, R completes apparently without error, but does not display the results. Given these jobs take about 200 hours, it's very hard to make progress by trial and error. I append the code and the sample and complete output. As is apparent, I upgraded R

Dear all, I am currently analyzing count data from a hierarchical design, and I?ve tried to follow the suggestions for a correct estimation of p-values as discusssed at R-Wiki (http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=guides:lmer-tests&s=lme%20and%20aov). However, I have the problem that my model only consists of parameters with just 1 d.f. (intercepts, slopes), so that the

Dear I am trying to find a 90% credible interval. I am using the following code. fit<-bugs( model.file=BUGScode, data=data, inits = list(geninits1,geninits2), parameters.to.save=keepers, n.chains=nchains, n.iter=runs, n.burnin=burn, n.thin=nthin, DIC= TRUE, bugs.directory="C:/Program Files/WINBUGS.14", \ ) But this is only giving 95%

Hi, I am having problems trying to assess the significance of random terms in a generalized linear mixed model using lme4 package. The model describes bird species richness R along roads (offset by log length of road log_length) as a function of fixed effects Shrub (%shrub cover) and Width (width of road), and random effect Site (nested within Site Cluster). >From reading answers to previous

I'm trying to read CODA/mcmc files (see the coda package), as generated by jags/WinBUGS/OpenBUGS, into a big.matrix. I can't load the whole mcmc object produced by read.coda() into memory since I'm using a laptop for this analysis (currently I'm unfunded). Right now I'm doing it by creating the filebacked.big.matrix, reading a chunk of data at a time from the chain

Hello, R community, I have been using the lmer and mcmcsamp functions in R with some difficulty. I do not believe this is my code or data, however, because my attempts to use the sample code and 'sleepstudy' data provided with the lme4 packaged (and used on several R-Wiki pages) do not return the same results as those indicated in the help pages. For instance: > sessionInfo() R
