Hello,

If you want confidence intervals for the beta coefficients of the model, try the following.

ci_lm <- function(object, level = 0.95){
    sfit <- summary(object)
    beta <- sfit$coefficients[, 1]
    se <- sfit$coefficients[, 2]
    df <- sfit$df[1]
    alpha <- 1 - level
    lower <- beta + qt(alpha/2, df = df)*se
    upper <- beta + qt(1 - alpha/2, df = df)*se
    data.frame(beta, lower, upper)
}

data(OrchardSprays)
model <- lm(decrease ~ rowpos + colpos * treatment, data = OrchardSprays)
ci_lm(model)


On the other hand, if you want to run regressions on each factor level separately, use the argument 'subset' of lm().

model2 <- lm(decrease ~ colpos , subset = treatment == 'A', data = OrchardSprays)
model2

I believe that you might be looking for this last one.

Okay, I've now tried to the predict function and get the SE, although it seem
to calculate SE for each observation from the line (I assume), while I want
the CI-interval and SE for each line fitted line for the treatment. I do not
really understand what  parameter mean these SEs are calculated from when
there would be several means along the line...?. This is what I get with
predict:

predict(model, se.fit = TRUE, interval = "confidence")
Another way I can think of to show how well the lines fit the data is to
look at the intercepts and slopes instead. I can specify the line for each
level and would then get the estimate of slope and intercept, although I do
not know how I show the standard errors of the slope and intercept.
lm(decrease[treatment=="A"]~colpos[treatment=="A"])

Call:
lm(formula = decrease[treatment == "A"] ~ colpos[treatment ==  "A"])

Coefficients:
              (Intercept)  colpos[treatment == "A"]
                   2.5357                    0.4643

Please let me know if you know how to find st. errors for (or st. error for
slope and intercept) of lines for each factor of a treatment.

Thank you
