Dear R list, I have a recurring problem with the languageR package, specifically the aovlmer.fnc function. When I try to run the following code (from R. H. Baayen's textbook): # Example 1: library(languageR) latinsquare.lmer <- lmer(RT ~ SOA + (1 | Word) + (1 | Subject), data = latinsquare) x <- pvals.fnc(latinsquare.lmer,

Hi, I seem to be facing a strange problem when I use Sweave for creating a LaTeX document of the R lme() output --- The EPS and PDF figure files get created, but are empty. I have attached a reproducible example below (taken from the R lme() help example). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ \documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}

Hi, I have been recently experimenting with the lattice package, which I must admit is just great! However, I'm sort of stuck in modifying certain parameters; Would appreciate some pointers on a couple of things: 1) Is it possible to change the font of the labels (say to computer modern) -- either in the Windows output or thru' Sweave (generating EPS/PDF)? 2) As you will notice, there

Hello all, Using Ubuntu 9.04 and R 2.8.1. For a project I need to use the Zelig package, which in turn wants to use the lme4 package. When trying to use Zelig and it tries to its required packages I get the following error message. Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : function 'cholmod_start' not provided by package 'Matrix' Error in loadModelDeps(model) :

Hi folks, I'm trying to consolidate the outputs (of anova() and lrm()) from multiple runs of single-variable logistic regression. Here's how the output looks: ------------------------------------------------------------ y ~ x1 y ~ x2 y ~ x3 y ~ x4 Chi-Square 0.1342152 1.573538 1.267291 1.518200 d.f. 2 2

Hello all-- I'm attempting to produce overlaid histograms with partially transparent columns. Whether this display will end up being useful, I can't say. But I do want to get it right. I've already got one solution (shown below), but I tried some other versions and had questions about my results. (Note: I'm using a quartz device, so transparency shows up correctly. You might

Hi folks, When I try to load package 'lme4' on my Linux box (64-bit Ubuntu 9.04), I get the following error: ------------------------------------- > library(lme4) Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : function 'cholmod_start' not provided by package 'Matrix' Error: package/namespace load failed for 'lme4' ------------------------------------ I

I've got a problem with "mcmcsamp" used with glmer objects produced with "lmer" from the lme4 package. When calling mcmcsamp, I get the error Error in if (var(y) == 0) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed This does not occur with all models, but I can't find anything wrong with the dataset. If the error is in my data, can someone tell me what I am looking

Hi everybody! I was using the function pvals.fnc from package 'languageR' until April. I do not know which version. Yesterday I updated all my packages and tried to run my loop again. Now I get the following error message: error in pvals.fnc(mm, nsim = 1000) : MCMC sampling is not yet implemented in lme4_0.999375-27 for models with random correlation parameters I guess it?s because of

Dear folks (or Dear Professor Bates), I'm quite confused as to the current status of some of the available functions applicable to lmer objects. Following the examples in Baayen, Davidson, Bates (2006), my plan is to run mcmcsamp on a random effect model created by lmer in package lme4, then use the (perhaps outdated) pvals to estimate p-value. But then I couldn't find pvals anywhere.

Dear R-Helpers, I am having troubles with installing with MCMCglmm package and I get the following error with a package "Matrix" Warning in library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, lib.loc = lib.loc) : there is no package called 'Matrix' Error: package 'Matrix' could not be loaded Execution halted ERROR: lazy loading failed for package

Dear R users, I'm trying to use function 'refit' from lme4 and I get this error that I can't understand: > refit(dolo4.model4,cbind(uu,50-uu)) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "refit", for signature "mer", "matrix" if I try: > refit(dolo4.model4,uu) Error in asMethod(object) :

I'm testing a FC5 machine for use in a student lab. R 2.3.1 is installed and seems to work fine. There is one peculiarity - the logins are authenticating to a server, and a "verbose" flag is set somewhere, leading to lots of spurious messages like this request done: ld 0xa227598 msgid 1 which may be confusing R. However, R CMD check seems to fail for packages with no

Dear R-listers, I am trying to assign colnames to a data frame within a loop, but I keep getting a "target of assignment expands to non-language object"-error. I need to split up a large dataset into about 20 smaller ones, and I would like to assign colnames within the loop, so I won't have to type the same thing 20 times over. I have concocted this really goofy example which

Dear All, to my surprise as.factor does not accept a levels argument. Maybe I did not read the documentation well enough. See the example below. I wanted to use ch1 as factor in the newdata argument of survfit, so I assumed that I could write as.factor(ch1, levels=ch1), since the order should be kept. But as.factor(ch1, levels=ch1) results in the error: Error in as.factor(ch1, levels = ch1)

Hi List, I have a problem with using Latex and Sweave for creating a document. So I downloaded the Sweave manual from http://www.statistik.lmu.de/~leisch/Sweave/Sweave-manual.pdf and i have tried to replicate the example on pages 4-5, but i encounter the following problem: IT DOES NOT WORK. I can run Sweave, create the .tex file and then when building the .tex file in TeXnikCenter i get all

Hi, I am writing an Sweave document and am using 'xtable' to make frequency tables of diagnoses of people undergoing cholecystectomy. Some of these diagnoses contain Danish characters ("?", "?", and "?"), and these characters are all garbled in the Latex document after I run Sweave. The odd thing is, everything looks absolutely right in the R console, and if
