Dear Constanze,
the error message gives you a hint, where the problem might be. The
first error massage says that you have NAs in your index variables
"Unit" and "Week". You can check that with the is.na() function. The
second error message (r.squared) tells you to specify the model, that is
on which transformation of the data the R-squared has to be computed.
There is no default. Moreover, you insert a dataframe ("pCN04") instead
on a plm object in r.squared().
Kind regards
Nina Schönfelder

There aremuch more NAs in y (Perf) than in x (PerfIn) and I have tried to get rid ofthem
with na.omit. Another error I have is with the same model for the r.squaredfunction
r.squared(pCN04,model=NULL, Perf ~ PerfIn, type= "ess")Error in
