Dear list members, I extensively searched in the previous threads of this mailing list an example easy to understand for me,
and able to fit my problem, but I didn´t succed to find a solution for which I feel certain. At the moment I am stuck with this solution for my unbalanced design, and I don´t know if it is correct or not: library(nlme) scrd.lme <- lme(response~stimulus*condition,random=~1|subject,data=scrd) Now at this point is it correct to simply run the command anova(scrd.lme) ? Or should I do something different using aov? As I told, for a balanced case I would use the command > aov1 = aov(response ~ stimulus*condition + > Error(subject/(stimulus*condition)), >data=scrd) Now in the R prompt I get this output, which is very different from the one listed of aov for a balanced case: > anova(scrd.lme) numDF denDF F-value p-value (Intercept) 1 182 178.56833 <.0001 stimulus 6 182 1.57851 0.1557 condition 1 182 39.68822 <.0001 stimulus:condition 6 182 0.67992 0.6660 Now, (if the previous point is correct) I am burning with curiosity to solve another problem. I found that for condition there are significatively differences. For condition I have only 2 levels so there is no need to do a post-hoc analysis. But if I had 4 levels, I would need. Now, which is for the ANOVA with repeated measures with UNBALANCED design the right approach for a post hoc test? Is there anyone who can provide a R code example to solve this problem so I can better understand? I know, I should read some books to understand better the subject. I am doing my best.

Something like library(nlme) lme1 <- lme(response~stimulus*condition,random=~1|subject,data=scrd) or possibly lme1 <- lme(response~stimulus*condition,random=~stimulus*condition|subject, data=scrd) if your experimental design would allow you to estimate stimulus and condition effects for each subject. Further questions along these lines should probably go to the r-sig-mixed-model mailing list. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
