hi peter,

thanks for your reply. i was kind of hoping/thinking that others have 
encountered the same problem too.

i try to provide a reproducable example.

my variables are the following (just the cases 1:50). the whole dataset has 
about 2800 cases.
satlife[1:50]

Levels: gesund nicht gesund

and this is the regression model:
reg.satlife<- lm(satlife ~ as.numeric(income)+ freunde + gesund+ satwirt)

the problem appears when calling
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
plot(reg.satlife)

the problem persists also when running the model without the factors income and 
gesund.

do you need more information?

Dear Katharina,

Yes, we do need more information.
First, what you provide above is not easily *reproducible*.
Try to provide data with dput() or post it on some accessible
website.

But before you do that, run your regression on the first 50
cases of your data (what you provide above, I assume). It
works for me (although I can't see why you would want the
"as.numeric(income)" term).

My guess is that there's something wrong with your data.
I would try:
1. put your variables into a data.frame;
2. str(...your data.frame...);
3. run regressions with single predictors;
4. run regressions with two predictors;
etc, until the "problem" appears.

It's almost certain that the problem is not with R.

Peter Ehlers



thanks,
katharina

any ideas? a bug?


Duncan *did* say that he was using  R 2.12.0. So that's not likely
to be the problem. Most of the time, when users claim that a
problem exists in a new version that did not exist in an older
version, it's due to a change in the user's setup or to not
updating packages or to not checking the NEWS file.

Since you still have not provided a *reproducible* example,
it's not likely that anyone can help. Can't you make up a
small example that shows exactly how you are using lm()
and that will generate the error?

hi all,
after fitting a multiple linear regression
model<- lm(y ~ a + b+ c+d)
i wanted to plot diagnostics
plot(model)
but get the error message
Error in object$coefficients : $ operator is invalid for atomic vectors.
which does not make a lot of sense, since there is no "$" - i am working with 
an attached dataset.
can anyone help, please??
thanks a lot,
kat


I just tried those lines (with fake data for a,b,c,d and y) and got no error 
message.  I was using R 2.12.0.

I think you need to show us a reproducible example, and the
sessionInfo() to go with it, to help with this.
