I am facing a problem with a function in survey package. The function svyvar gives the estimated population variance from a given sampling scheme. I am working with a data having more than four continuous variables. In order to have have population total for all those cont. variables I have written in the following format
svyvar(~var1+var2+var3+var4+var5+var6,data) ; var1,var2,...,var6 are 6 cont. variables Now the problem is that,this function works properly when the number of cont. variables are less than or equal to three. But when the number of variables goes beyond three it gives a wrong answer,where we have two estimates for the 1st variable (here it is var1),and one of the variable is dropped,and also estimates differs. Sometimes it comes out to be a negative quantity. Please tell me why these problems are happening. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Problem-with-svyvar-in-survey-package-tp3932818p3932818.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
