Alain-

Thanks again for your reply. Yes, the offset for effort is only in the count 
part of the model. Sorry I wasn't clear about why I was using 'sum'...my effort 
data set contains records of trips with the effort given for each trip. I 
thought using sum would get me the total number of turtles predicted for the 
new effort data. I did also log-transform the effort in the new effort data 
before applying predict (correct?). I will try the manual method as you 
recommended to help me understand the code.

Thanks,

Laura

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to predict the number of turtles for different levels of effort and
combinations of covariates. So, for my dataset from which I built the model,
would I compare sum(predict(ZIP,type="response")) to the observed bycatch to
compare numbers? In order to predict for the new data (called effort), would
I use sum(predict(ZIP,newdata=effort,type="response"))? I want to be certain
I am understanding the coding--this is my first time using the predict
function.

Thanks,

Laura




Laura
Why do you use the sum? If you use:

PredY <- predict(ZIP, type = "response") then you have predicted values for 
each of the rows in your effort data frame.
Job done.

You have an offset in your model, isn't it? You will need to choose values for 
this in the data frame effort as well.
Also double check that the offset is only in the count part....at least that is 
what I would do.
Note that using an offset means that you assume that if sampling effort is 
doubled, your fish (?) numbers double.




If you fully want to understand what predict is doing, try to do it manually. 
Below is R code from Chapter 7 (Zero Inflation and GLMM with R)






M3 <- zeroinfl(ParrotFish ~ Depth + Slope + SQDistRck + DistSed + Swell + Chla 
+ SST,
                dist = "poisson", link = "logit",
                data = PF2)

Betas.logistic <- coef(M3, model = "zero")
X.logistic     <- model.matrix(M3, model = "zero")
eta.logistic   <- X.logistic %*% Betas.logistic
p              <- exp(eta.logistic) / (1 + exp(eta.logistic))

Betas.log      <- coef(M3, model = "count")
X.log          <- model.matrix(M3, model = "count")
eta.log        <- X.log %*% Betas.log
mu             <- exp(eta.log)

ExpY       <-  mu * (1 - p)
VarY       <- (1 - p) * (mu + p * mu^2)



Instead of using model.matrix(M3), you could specify your own data frame with 
covariates.
Your effort. Something like:

M4 <- zeroinfl(ParrotFish ~ Depth + Slope   | SST,
                dist = "poisson", link = "logit",
                data = PF2)

betapois <- coef(M4, model = "count")
betaBin  <- coef(M4, model = "zero")

MyDataPois <- data.frame(Depth = blah blah,
                          Slope = Blah blah)
MyDataBin  <- data.frame(SST =  blah)

Xpois <- model.matrix(~ blah blah, data = MyDataPois)
Xbin  <- model.matrix(~ blah blah, data = MyDataBin)

eta.Pois <- Xpois %*% betapois
eta.Bin <- blah blah

mu = blah blah
pi = blah blah

ExpY = ...


Doing it like this means you fully understand it..:-)
