Dear bluesky315, There are several ways in R to determine regressors associated with factors. One way is to set the global contrasts option. To get "deviation" regressors, use options(contrasts=c("contr.sum", "contr.poly")), and see ?options and ?contrasts for details. Also see Section 11.1.1 of the Introduction to R manual that comes with R.
I hope this helps, John -------------------------------- John Fox Senator William McMaster Professor of Social Statistics Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada web: socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox > -----Original Message----- > From: r-help-boun...@r-project.org [mailto:r-help-boun...@r-project.org] On > Behalf Of bluesky...@gmail.com > Sent: February-09-10 6:33 PM > To: r-h...@stat.math.ethz.ch > Subject: [R] Model matrix using dummy regressors or deviation regressors > > The model matrix for the code at the end the email is shown below. > Since the model matrix doesn't have -1, I think that it is made of > dummy regressors rather than deviation regressors.
