Hi Michael, many thanks for your time and the hint. This is much appreciated.
Indeed, I managed it to get part of the dataset from which I want to develop my final logit model in the correct long format with true/false standing in the column for the choice variable,. But the problem with the variable I want to define with an alternative specific coefficient (=P_id) still persists. If doing the mlogit procedure and defining the table for this variable as 1) a data frame I get the comment [Start of R quote] Error in model.frame.default(terms(formula, lhs = lhs, rhs = rhs, data = data), : invalid type (list) for variable 'P_id' [End of R quote] Btw, length of the variable/data frame P_id is 6, the length of the choice variable is 1,406 and the length of a variable with a generic coefficient (and which is working fine) is 8,436. 2) as a matrix, I get the comment [Start of R quote] Error in model.frame.default(terms(formula, lhs = lhs, rhs = rhs, data = data), : variable lengths differ (found for 'P_id') [End of R quote] Btw, length of the variable/matrix P_id is 8,436, the length of the choice variable is 1,406 and the length of a variable with a generic coefficient (and which is working fine) is 8,436. Any comment or hint (also on literature, in case my mistakes are too simple and obvious) would be helpful.
