hello list, the topic is covered extensively but from none of the postings i could conclude the correct statement for my design: a 2-level within and a 2-level between subjects factor, both fixed, subjects as random factor.
i want to test wheter there is a within effect and if it is different for levels of the between-factor. i want to do it with lme and multicomp for post-hocs. i tried am2 <- lme(dv ~ within*between, random = ~1|subject ,data) summary(am2) would this be appropiate? i'm unsure about the random term.. ####data, dv is the dependent: dat<-data.frame(list(structure(list(dv = c(1L, 3L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 5L, 3L, 4L, 3L, 5L), dvr = c(1, 6.5, 3, 3, 3, 12.5, 6.5, 10, 6.5, 12.5), subject = structure(c(1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 3L, 3L, 4L, 4L, 5L, 5L), .Label = c("s1", "s2", "s3", "s4", "s5"), class = "factor"), within = c(1L, 2L, 1L, 2L, 1L, 2L, 1L, 2L, 1L, 2L), between = structure(c(1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 1L, 2L, 2L, 2L, 2L), .Label = c("a", "b"), class = "factor")), .Names = c("dv", "dvr", "subject", "within", "between"), row.names = c(NA, -10L ), class = "data.frame"))) additionally i tried to run this on a rank-transformed set (dvr<-rank(dvr)) beacause of violated anova-assumptions... any comments on general validity of the lme-model and on random term specification would be appreciated very much (..maybe i'll have to start an own thread on the rank-transformation) greetings, kay -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/lme-for-repeated-measures-one-within-one-between-factor-tp1583542p1583542.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
