using glmer to fit a mixed-effects model with gamma-distributed response variable
Sub: using glmer to fit a mixed-effects model with gamma-distributed response variable Hello, I'm currently trying to fit a mixed effects model , i.e.: > burnedmodel1.2<-glmer(gpost.f.crwn.length~lg.shigo.av+dbh+leaf.area+ bark.thick.bh+ht.any+ht.alive+(1|site/transect/plot), family=gaussian, na.action=na.omit, data=rws30.BL) If I run this code, I get the error below: Error:

Error running MuMIn dredge function using glmer models
Dear list, I am trying to use MuMIn to compare all possible mixed models using the dredge function on binomial data but I am getting an error message that I cannot decode. This error only occurs when I use glmer. When I use an lmer analysis on a different response variable every works great. Example using a simplified glmer model global model: mod<- glmer(cbind(st$X2.REP.LIVE,

Help with glmer {lme4) function: how to return F or t statistics instead of z statistics.
Hi, I'm new to R and GLMMs, and I've been unable to find the answers to my questions by trawling through the R help archives. I'm hoping someone here can help me. I'm running an analysis on Seedling survival (count data=Poisson distribution) on restoration sites, and my main interest is in determining whether the Nutrients (N) and water absorbing polymer Gel (G) additions to the

Problem on glmer
Hi all, I was trying to fit a Gamma hierarchical model using "glmer", but got weird error message that I could not understand. On the other hand, a similar call to the glmmPQL leads to results that are close to what I expect. I also tried to change tha "nAGQ" argument in "glmer", but it did not solve the problem. The model I was fitting has a simple structure - one

lme4 install trouble
After upgrading to R 2.6.0, I'm having trouble running lmer: model <- lmer(primed ~ log(dist.time)*role + 1|target.utt, data=data.utts) Error in UseMethod("as.logical") : no applicable method for "as.logical" So I thought I'd upgrade lme4 to the latest version, but unfortunately the compilation fails - perhaps there's a missing #include: R CMD INSTALL

Question on overdispersion
I have a few questions relating to overdispersion in a sex ratio data set that I am working with (note that I already have an analysis with GLMMs for fixed effects, this is just to estimate dispersion). The response variable is binomial because nestlings can only be male or female. I have samples of 1-5 nestlings from each nest (individuals within a nest are not independent, so the response

R vs Stata on generalized linear mixed models: glmer and xtmelogit
Hello, I have compared the potentials of R and Stata about GLMM, analysing the dataset 'ohio' in the package 'faraway' (the same dataset is analysed with GEE in the book 'Extending the linear model with R' by Julian Faraway). Basically, I've tried the 2 commands 'glmmPQL' and 'glmer' of R and the command 'xtmelogit' of Stata. If I'm not

glmer.nb: function not in downloaded lme4 package?
Dear R Help, I would like to use the glmer.nb function for mixed modelling using negative binomial distribution please. On the CRAN website apparently this function is called from the lme4 package (version 0.99999911-1). I have downloaded the latest version of the lme4 package (version 0.999999-2) and have recently reinstalled the latest version of 64-bit R (version 3.0.1) but after

glmer documentation
Hello, I am fitting a gmler using poisson, and I was looking for a documentation to interpret correctly the output. I'm quite a beginner with these kind of models. I couldn't find something in the lme4 package manual. and on the internet neither...

step and glmer
Is it possible to use the step() function with a glmer() as an object? I obtain the following error message when I try to do it: "Error in x$terms : $ operator not defined for this S4 class". I perform the glmer correctly but I can't do the step. Thank you so much. -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/step-and-glmer-tp1474390p1474390.html Sent from the R help

Specifying random effects distribution in glmer()
I'm trying to figure out how to carry out a Poisson regression fit to longitudinal data with a gamma distribution with unknown shape and scale parameters. I've tried the 'lmer4' package's glmer() function, which fits the Poisson regression using: library('lme4') fit5<- glmer(seizures ~ time + progabide + timeXprog + offset(lnPeriod) + (1|id), data=pdata,

bug in lme4?
Dear all, I found a problem with 'lme4'. Basically, once you load the package 'aod' (Analysis of Overdispersed Data), the functions 'lmer' and 'glmer' don't work anymore: library(lme4) (fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject), sleepstudy)) (gm1 <- glmer(cbind(incidence, size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd), family = binomial, data

Problem specifying Gamma distribution in lme4/glmer
Dear R and lme4 users- I am trying to fit a mixed-effects model, with the glmer function in lme4, to right-skewed, zero-inflated, non-normal data representing understory grass and forb biomass (continuous) as a function of tree density (indicated by leaf-area). Thus, I have tried to specify a Gamma distribution with a log-link function but consistently receive an error as follows: >

Nesting fixed factors in lme4 package
Hi, can anyone tell me how to nest two fixed factors using glmer in lme4? I have a split-plot design with two fixed factors - A (whole plot factor) and B (subplot factor), both with two levels. I want to do GLMM as I also want to include different plots as a random factor. But I am interested on the effect of A a B and their interaction on the response variable. I tried

glmer with non integer weights
hello, i'd appreciate help with my glmer. i have a dependent which is an index (MH.index) ranging from 0-1. this index can also be considered as a propability. as i have a fixed factor (stage) and a nested random factor (site) i tried to model with glmer. i read that it's possible to use a quasibinomial distribution, for this kind of data, which i than actually did - but firstly (1)
