The above is a simplified case. How can I do this with multiple RT measurements per subject? In other words, the above, but with more than one RT column per subject. Resulting in: SubjListCondition RT1 RT2 RT3 RT4 RT5 2 1 C (AVG1) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) 3 2 C (AVG1) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) 2 1 D (AVG1) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) 3 2 D (AVG1) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) (AVG2) I've come across the apply and aggregate functions in online documentation, and I have the suspicion that they may be called for here, but their application isn't clear to me. I am fairly new to R. (I am using R 2.4.0 on Mac OS X.) I'd appreciate any insights.

Re: [R] Collapsing across trials
Thanks so much, Hadley. That's exactly what I needed. My only comment is that the line cast(Subj + List + Condition ~ variable , mean) should be cast(dfm, Subj + List + Condition ~ variable , mean) Your excellent demo on your site cleared that up quickly, however.
