Dear Bert, so what can I do to obtain a goodness of fit for a non-linear model if r² does not work? And here comes my next question: is it apropriate to comopare a linear and a non-linear model with anova()? Thank you so much for answering, Anna Am 16.03.2011 18:54, schrieb Bert Gunter:

You can't. R^2 has no (consistent, sensible) meaning for nonlinear models. If you don't understand why not, get local help or do some reading. Cheers, Bert On Wed, Mar 16, 2011 at 9:53 AM, Anna Gretschel wrote: > Dear List, > > how can I obtain the value of r suqared for a non-linear model? Fo
