Dear R users, psy version 0.65 is on CRAN now. psy provides several methods used in psychometry (kappa, icc, cronbach, screeplot (with simulations), non linear mapping, etc.) A bug has been fixed in function wkappa (weighted kappa): in particular circumstances, the 2*2 table presented levels in an order different to what was suggested in the help file. The fpca function (PCA plot with

Dears, I'm a college student and In doing my statistics homework. I use R with SEM package as my tool for sem analysis, but my teacher told me AMOS is more suitable for such analysis. Could someone help tell me whether it is true that some commercial software is better accepted in academic fields? Sorry if I should not post such topics here. -- Best Regards, Reeyarn T.

hi, i'm trying to learn how to use aregImpute by doing the examples provided with the package, and after installing Hmisc.1.6-1.zip (for Windows), and running the very first example on R 1.7.1, i get an error message warning me about "mace" (see below) and acepack. i found the acepack package, but its filename ends in tar.gz and i'm finding it difficult to open (because its

Hi, I have a dataframe ds1.2 - 503 categorial variables and 1 continuous response variables. I ran aregImpute to deal with NA's and got the followig error: > fmla = terms( Response ~ . ,data=ds1.2) > ds.i = aregImpute(fmla,data=ds1.2) Error in matrix(as.double(1), nrow = n, ncol = p, dimnames = list(rnam, : length of dimnames [2] not equal to array extent Could you explain

Hi all, I'm currently working with a dataset that has quite a few missing values and after some investigation I figured that multiple imputation is probably the best solution to handle the missing data in my case. I found several references to functions in S-Plus that perform multiple imputation (NORM, CAT, MIX, PAN). Does R have corresponding functions? I searched the archives but was not

  I have timeseries data for some factors, and some missing values are there in those factors, I want impute those missing values without disturbing the distribution of that factor, and maintaining the correlation with other factors. Pl. suggest me some imputation methods. I tried some functions in R like aregImpute, transcan. After the imputation I am unable to retrive the data with imputed

Hi again Sorry, in looking again at sammon and isoMDS I see that they seem to do exactly what I want, except that they are non-metric, which means, as I understand it, that they relate the rank orders of the variables rather than the actual distances. Could I use these non-metric MDS packages even if my distances are metric? Thanks Karen -- Karen Kotschy Centre for Water in the Environment

I have 2 questions on ANOVA with 1 between subjects factor and 2 within factors. 1. I am confused on how to do the analysis with aov because I have seen two examples on the web with different solutions. a) Jon Baron (http://www.psych.upenn.edu/~baron/rpsych/rpsych.html) does 6.8.5 Example 5: Stevens pp. 468 - 474 (one between, two within) between: gp within: drug, dose aov(effect ~ gp * drug *

Hi all, I have relatively small dataset on which I would like to perform a PCA. I am interested about a package that would also combine a method for determining the number of components (I know there are plenty of approaches to this problem). Any suggestions about a package/function? thanks, Nick -- View this message in context:

I am a new user of R for Windows, enthusiast about the many functions of the Design and Hmisc libraries. I combined the results of a Cox regression model after multiple imputation (of missing values in some covariates). Now I got my vector of coefficients (and of standard errors). My question is: How could I use directly that vector to run programs such as 'nomogram', 'calibrate',

Hi. I have data which i would want to assess the degree of agreement between two assays, e.g., to evaluate reproducibility or for inter-rater reliability. I have used the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient. It looks good ranginging between 0.90 to 0.998. Though this looks good. I am told the Concordance correlation coefficient will give a better picture of how reproducible the assay

I am unclear on whether to run R CMD check pgkname as user or as root on Linux. When running as user, after all the latex, html, and man files are created, I get the following error message: Rdconv(): Couldn't open '': Permission denied Has anyone dealt with that message? When I run R CMD check a second time, all latex, html, etc. are recreated which takes quite a while. Is there

Dear all: I am totally new to R, actually, statistics software.I get two very simple, even stupid question: 1) where I should put the data file in order to use it , I tried to build a work dir in library( package:base) and save the text file (data) there, then, I use read.table(filename), not work; I tried the full path, still not work. I must have done something wrong. 2) is it possible to create

Dear R users, I am trying to connect an Access database. The code I use is : channel<-odbcConnectAccess("Base") table.db<-sqlFetch(Base,"table",colnames=T) When I look at the table in R, the table imported lacks the first 41 lines, and the column names are the values of the 42nd record. Any hints ? I am working on a WinXP pro 5.1 box, R 2.5-0 compiled from source

Dear professor, I am currently using Design package and the cph formula for assessing multivariable analysis. I am tryng to get the C-index for my survival model based on Dxy coefficient.

Hi all -- So I'm working through my statistics homework again, and trying to reproduce the examples in the book (Kirk's _Experimental Design_, third edition) in R. This is a completely randomized hierarchical design (CRH-28(A)). The B factor is completely nested within the A factor. Pages 480-482, for those playing along at home. I can use: summary(aov(value ~ a + Error(b),

Hello R experts I am using Hmisc aregImpute and Impute (following example on page 105 of The Hmisc and Design Libraries). *My end goal is to have NAs physically replaced in my dataframe. I have read the help pages and example in above sited pdf file, but to no avail. Here is example of what I did. Ph, my data frame, is attached. > xt <- aregImpute (~ q5 + q22rev02 + q28a, n.impute=10,

Dear all; I am trying to use HMISC imputation function to perform multiple imputations on my data and I keep on getting errors for the code given in the help files.
