Sorry for this dumb question. Suppose I have a named array ww defined as ww <- 1:5 names(ww) <- c("a", "b", "c", "d", "e") How can I extract the whole array of numbers without the names? ww[1:5] does not work while ww[[1]] can only extract one number at a time. Thanks, Gang

I know how to convert a simple dataframe from wide to long format with one varying factor. However, for a dataset with two factors like the following, Subj T1_Cond1 T1_Cond2 T2_Cond1 T2_Cond2 1 0.125869 4.108232 1.099392 5.556614 2 1.427940 2.170026 0.120748 1.176353 How to elegantly convert to a long form as Subj Time Cond Value 1 1 1 0.125869 1

I have some data 'myData' in wide form (attached at the end), and would like to convert it to long form. I wish to have five variables in the result: 1) Subj: factor 2) Group: between-subjects factor (2 levels: s / w) 3) Reference: within-subject factor (2 levels: Me / She) 4) F: within-subject factor (2 levels: F1 / F2) 5) J: within-subject factor (2 levels: J1 / J2) As this is the

Hi, I'm trying to set up AR(1) as a correlation structure in modeling some data (attached file data.txt in text format) with lme, but have trouble getting it to work. Incent, Correctness, and Oppor are 3 categorical variables, Beta is a response variable, and Time is an equally-spaced variable with 6 time points (treated as a categorical variable as well). Basically I want to model the

Hi , I am new to R. I am trying to run a simple R script as shown below: aov.R ------ data1<-c(49,47,46,47,48,47,41,46,43,47,46,45,48,46,47,45,49,44,44,45,42,45,45,40 ,49,46,47,45,49,45,41,43,44,46,45,40,45,43,44,45,48,46,40,45,40,45,47,40) matrix(data1, ncol= 4, dimnames = list(paste("subj", 1:12), c("Shape1.Color1", "Shape2.Color1", "Shape1.Color2",

Hi R users, I am trying to use the optim function to maximize a likelihood funciton, and I got the following warning messages. Could anyone explain to me what messege 31 means exactly? Is it a cause for concern? Since the value of convergence turns out to be zero, it means that the converging is successful, right? So can I assume that the parameter estimates generated thereafter are reliable MLE

I am extremely puzzled by this behavior in R. I have a data frame called Trials in which I have results from an experiment. I am trying to do a subjects analysis, but getting weird results. Each row has 1 trial in it, which includes a column for the subject number I get the list of subject numbers like so: > Subj=unique(sort(Trials$Subj)) Then I loop over them. But I get strange results. As

I have a work around for this, but can someone explain why the first example does not work properly? I believed it worked in the previous version of R, by selecting just the rows=200525 and omitting the na's. I just upgraded to 2.13. I am also concern with the row numbers being different in the selections, should I be worried? FYI, I just selected the first few rows for demonstration, please

Hi everyone, On CentOS 7 I'm running into an issue with the latest nvidia driver from elrepo: kmod-nvidia-384.98-1.el7_4.elrepo.x86_64 This driver version seem to introduce issue in detecting video modes when a monitor is connected using DVI. As soon as the machine attempts to start X, nothing happens and the monitor goes into sleep mode reporting that it has 'no signal'. It is

Dear all, In lme, models in which a factor is fully "contained" in another lead to an error. This is not the case when using lm/aov. I understand that these factors are aliased, but believe that such models make sense when the factors are fitted sequentially. For example, I sometimes fit a factor first as linear term (continuous variable with discrete levels, e.g. 1,2,4,6), and

Hello, I am having a problem where code that plots lines using a different data frame plots bars with the current data frame (I am intended to plot lines). The code specifies lines (see below), so I can't figure out why the results are bars. I suspect that it may have something to do with the fact that in the data frame where the code worked as intended, the both variables specifying

All, How does one extract the level-1 variance from a model fit via lmer()? In the code below the level-2 variance component may be obtained via subscripting, but what about the level-1 variance, viz., the 3.215072 term? (actually this term squared) Didn't see anything in the archives on this. Cheers, David > fm <- lmer( dv ~ time.num*drug + (1 | Patient.new), data=dat.new )

Hello: I am new R user stumped why the R code after this paragraph generates "Error: syntax error" messages after each of the last 2 lines. I have tried searching the manuals, Hmisc documentation, contributed manuals, help archives, and Internet. I am running R 1.7.1 under Windows 2000 (I will upgrade when my imminent OS upgrade happens). My data was successfully entered and

Dear R-help, I'm facing a problem with defining a repeated measures anova with weighted data. Here's the code to reproduce the problem: # generate some data seed=11 rtrep <- data.frame(rt=rnorm(100),ti=rep(1:5,20),subj=gl (20,5,100),we=runif(100)) # model with within factor for subjects/repeated measurements, no problem aov(rt~ti + Error(subj/ti),data=rtrep) #model with weights

All, I'm trying to plot an all.effects() object, as shown in the help for all.effects and also Crawley's R book (p.178, 2007). The data has a repeated measures structure, but I'm using all.effects for the simple lm() fit here. Below is a reproducible example that yields the error message. fm.ex = lm(dv ~ time.num*drug*X, data = dat.new) fm.effects = all.effects(fm.ex, xlevels =

Dear all: I m a newer on R.? I have some problem when I use?anova function.? I use anova function to get Type I SS results, but I also need to get Type III SS results.? However, in my code, there is some different between the result of Type I SS and Type III SS.? I don?t know why the ?seqe? factor disappeared in the result of Type III SS.? How can I do?? Here is my example and result.

Hi all, I have a strange problem and rigth now I can't figure out a solution. Trying to calculate an ANOVA with one between subject factor (group) and one within (hemisphere). My dependent variable is source localization (data). My N = 25. My data.frame looks like this: > ML.dist.stack subj group hemisphere data 1 1 tin left 0.7460840 2 2 tin left

Hi All. I'm trying to run a simple model from Baayan, Davidson, & Bates and getting a confusing error message. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? # Here's the data.....
