Your design seems to be unbalanced: multistatum aov is intended for
balanced designs. My guess is that one idio subject has two Type=1
observations: in which case try removing one of them.

Hi, I'm a new R user, coming from SPSS, and without a particularly strong
stats background.
I've got a data set that I'd like to do a mixed-design ANOVA with. No
missing values. Here's the summary:
summary(learnDat.ae)
Type Subject idio struct TrainErrs cond
0:20 11 : 3 idio :28 ae :58 Min. : 0.00 idioae :28
2:19 12 : 3 nonidio:30 fact: 0 1st Qu.: 6.25 idiofact : 0
3:19 14 : 3 Median :11.50 nonidioae:30
15 : 3 Mean :13.40
18 : 3 3rd Qu.:16.00
2 : 3 Max. :59.00
(Other):40
Note that the TrainErrs column is the only numeric column, and I forced
everything else to be a factor. (Is that correct?)
I then do the following:
aov.errs.ae <- aov(TrainErrs ~ (idio*Type) + Error(Subject/Type) + (idio),
learnDat.ae)
So, idio is between-subjects and Type is within-subjects. This is based on
examples I've found elsewhere.
summary(aov.errs.ae)
This seems to work fine:
Error: Subject
Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value Pr(>F)
idio 1 179 179 0.89 0.36
Type 1 210 210 1.05 0.32
Residuals 17 3401 200
Error: Subject:Type
Df Sum Sq Mean Sq F value Pr(>F)
Type 2 515 258 2.44 0.103
idio:Type 2 680 340 3.22 0.053 .
Residuals 34 3595 106
---
Signif. codes: 0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1
Now the problem:
model.tables(aov.errs.ae,"means")
Error in outer(rownames(efficiency), colnames(efficiency), paste)[eff.used]
:
invalid subscript type 'list'
In addition: Warning message:
In any(efficiency) : coercing argument of type 'double' to logical
All the examples and manuals I've found said this should work. When I did a
fully between-subjects ANOVA on another data set, I had no problem with
model.tables. I have no idea what to make of this error message. I've tried
a number of variations on things, with no improvement.
This is R version 2.7.2 (2008-08-25), running on Redhat, x86_64.
Suggestions? Thanks!
