Hello,
I am trying to run glmm to test the effect of the three fixed effects [AGE
(weaned vs. unweaned claf), LOCATION (zoo vs. park), MOTher's social status
(matriarch vs. nonmatriarch)] and one random effect [ID (12 different
calves of whom I have multiple but unbalanced observations)] on the a
multinomial response variable [DIST (distance from mom at less than 2
meters,between 2-5 meters and at more than 5 meters). Is the *family =
binomial* argument in my code incorrect for my data? If it is incorrect,
is there a way to test this model with *multinomial response variable*?
OConnell.glmm1<-lmer(DIST~AGE+LOC+MOT+(1|ID),data=OConnell,family=binomial(link
= "logit")
Thank you for reading.
Maggie
