Hi, All. I have a logistic regression model that I have run. The question came up: which of these regressors is more important than another? (I'm using Design) Logistic Regression Model lrm(formula = iconicgesture ~ ST + SSP + magnitude + Condition + Expertise, data = d) Coef S.E. Wald Z P Intercept -3.2688 0.2854 -11.45 0.0000 ST 2.0871 0.2730 7.64

I'm trying to run "rfe" for variable selection in the caret package, and am getting an error. My data frame includes a dummy variable with 3 levels. x <- chlDescr y <- chl #crate dummy variable levels(x$State) <- c("AL","GA","FL") dummy <- model.matrix(~State,x) z <- cbind(dummy, x) #remove State category variable w <- z[,c(-4)]

Hi, I have a question about using "lme" and "aov" for the following dataset. If I understand correctly, using "aov" with Error term in the formula is equivalent to using "lme" with default settings, i.e. both assume compound symmetry correlation structure. And I have found that equivalency in the past. However, with the follwing dataset, I got different

Hi all, Sent the following question yesterday, but haven't got any suggestions yet. So just trying again, can anyone comment on the problem that I have? Thank you! ------------- Hi, I have a question about using "lme" and "aov" for the following dataset. If I understand correctly, using "aov" with an Error term in the formula is equivalent to using

Greetings, We are performing a meta-analysis of mink pup survival data versus chemical concentration. We have modeled percent survival successfully using nls as shown below and the plot. What we need to do is construct a confidence interval on the concentration at which we get 50% survival (aka the EC50, although we may want other percent survivals in the future). My first question is, what seems

Hi Bert, Thanks for the suggestions. I tried lme with different control parameters, and also tried using "ML", instaed of "REML", but still got the same answers. Yes, I hope some gurus on this list could give me some hints. Thanks --- "Gunter, Bert" <bert_gunter at merck.com> wrote: > But they are close. This is almost certainly a > numeric issue --

Hi, I have a test system with two DCs based on samba v 4.8.0 with BIND9_DLZ as the dns backend running on a fresh install of Gentoo. I can't get DNS Updates to work on both DCs. If I issue the command: samba_dnsupdate --verbose after the 2nd DC has joined the domain I get the errors (just showing the last entry): update(nsupdate): SRV

I'd like to use linear and quadratic trend analysis in order to find out a change in slope. Basically, I need to solve a similar problem as discussed in http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/courses/ed230bc1/cnotes4/trend1.html My subjects have counted dots: one dot, two dots, etc. up to 9 dots. The reaction time increases with increasing dots. The theory is that 1 up to 3 or 4 points can be counted

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi. I have been using SAS for some time, and now I have discovered R. I am very happy with it, but I have not found out how to perform some of the multiple comparisons I was used to do in SAS. With the SAS/STAT, I generally used the MEANS (for comparison of arithmetic means) and the LSMEANS (for adjusted means) statements of the GLM procedure (I

I have fitted the faults.data to glm.nb and to the function negbin from the package aod. The output of both is the following: summary(glm.nb(n~ll, data=faults)) Call: glm.nb(formula = n ~ ll, data = faults, init.theta = 8.667407437, link = log) Deviance Residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -2.0470 -0.7815 -0.1723 0.4275 2.0896 Coefficients:

Hi, I tried to do a nested Anova with the attached Data. My response variable is "survivors" and I would like to know the effect of (insect-egg clutch) "size", "position" (of clutch on twig) and "clone" (/plant genotype) on the survival of eggs (due to predation). Each plant was provided with three different sizes of clutches (45,15,5) and had

Hello, R users, I have two factors (treat, section) anova design experiment where there are 3 replicates. The objective of the experiment is to test if there is significant difference of yield between top (section 9 to 11) and bottom (section 9 to 11) of the fruit tree under treatment. I found that there are interaction between two factors. I wonder if I can contrast means from levels of

Hi R-people, I am wanting to run Factorial ANOVA followed by Scheffe tests on some spatial subjective data. I'm comparing X-Y independent coordinates against x-y dependent coordinates. There are only four independent spatial coordinates that form a square. I am wondering whether I am doing the right thing, because there doesn't seem to be a simple way of doing this. I have attempted to

Dear list members, I am trying to estimate parameters of the AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) model. I have one additional dummy variable for the AR(1) part. First I wanted to do it using garchFit function (everything would be then estimated in one step) however in the fGarch library I didn't find a way to include an additional variable. That would be the formula but, as said, I think it is impossible to add

Hi, I'm trying to make sense of the options for multiple comparisons options in R. I've found the following options: pairwise.t.test, which provides standard t-tests, with options for choosing an appropriate correction for multiple comparisons TukeyHSD, which provides the usual Tukey test glht(package multcomp), which provides a variety of options >From the help list, it appears

Hi everybody, I'm trying to fit a Garch(1,1) process to the DAX returns. My data consists of about 2300 10day-logreturns in chronologically descending order (see attachment). But if I use the garch function I get a very high alpha_1 and a quite low beta, which doesn't make that much sense. I think I am missing something, but have no idea what it might be. I'd appreciate it a lot

Hello, R experts, If I understand Ted's anwser correctly, then I can not contrast the mean yields between sections 1-8 and 9-11 under "Trt" but I can contrast mean yields for sections 1-3 and 6-11 because there exists significant interaction between two factors (Trt:section4, Trt:section5). Could I use the commands below to test the difference between sections 1-3 and 6-11 ?

Hallo, I have this dataset with repeated measures. There are two within-subject factors, "formant" (2 levels: 1 and 2) and "f2 Ref" (25 levels: 670, 729, 788, 846, 905, 1080, 1100, 1120, 1140, 1170, 1480, 1470, 1450, 1440, 1430, 1890, 1840, 1790, 1740, 1690, 2290, 2210, 2120, 2040, 1950), and one between-subject factor, lang (2 levels:1 and 2).
