Hi, Doug:
I just confirmed a discrepancy (reported by Paul Cossens) between the
output of lme and lmer using the Oxide example in Pinheiro and Bates,
pp. 167-170. It appears that coef(lmer(...)) adds only the ranef for
Wafer and omits the one for Lot.
Consider the
My question relates to problems that I'm having matching lme and lmer
examples in PB.
using Matix 0.995
In the Oxide example in p167-170 I can't get the level 2 coefficient
estimates to match
the fm1Oxide model in lme is
data(Oxide,package=nlme)
lme(Thickness~1,Oxide)
which I translate in
