Hi guys, I'm trying to combining 2 models into 1 but maybe I'm not doing this in the right way. my dataset is about the level of the vitamin A in the blood measured at different times with two different treatments (ie. I have 6 coloums, vit A1 , time1, treat1, vit A2, time2, treat2, n=28). It wants to determinate if the variable treatment is really appropriate. E(y) = β0 + β1 x + β2 x^2 (treatment1) = γ0 + γ1 x + γ2 x^2 (treatment2) (level of vit a against time)
satisfy the hypothesis H0 : β1 = γ1 and β2 = γ2 . The question is how can I combine the two models into one E(y) = X β with appropriate design matrix X and coefficient vector β? In this question β is 6x1. I did it but I think it is not good at all: vita<-cbind(dt$Vita..y., dt$Time..x., dt$Treatment,dt$Vita..y..1,dt$Time..x..1,dt$Treatment.1) x1 <- cbind(rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,1], matrix(0,28,2)) x11 <- cbind(rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,4], matrix(0,28,2)) x2 <- cbind(rep(0,28), rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,2], rep(0,28)) x22 <- cbind(rep(0,28), rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,5], rep(0,28)) x3 <- cbind(matrix(0,28,2), rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,3]) x33 <- cbind(matrix(0,28,2), rep(1,28), matrix(0,28,2), vita[,6]) x <- rbind(x1, x2, x3,x11, x22, x33) #create the design matrix ma <-c(vita[,1],vita[,4]) #response values mma <- data.frame(ma,x) #create the data frame for regression attach(mma) #attach the data frame to make it available to lm() ma.lm <- lm(ma ~ -1 + X1 + X2 + X3 + X4 + X5 + X6) #regr model without #intercept (note the -1 term) I am sure that is not good, because I should have x^2 and there isn't. Moreover it gives me an error: Error in model.frame.default(formula = ma ~ -1 + X1 + X2 + X3 + X4 + X5 + : variable lengths differ (found for 'X1') How can I do it?
