Dear Fotis,

The test is a randomization test, based on comparing differences of residuals, ordered with respect to the covariate of the smooth, to differences of residuals in randomized order. Random effect terms are excluded because there is not basis size to choose. Currently smooths with factor by variables are also excluded for reasons of maintainer laziness, as this would require special case code to exclude the covariate values that are irrelevant given the factor level. Sorry about that.

My guess is that you don't have a problem here anyway, given the fairly low edfs relative to the basis dimension. In general as a double check I would plot the residuals against ctrial, colour coded by level of igc, just to check that there doesn't seem to be missed pattern in them. However with binary residuals you are unlikely to see much.

best,
Simon

Hello all

I am using bam for a mixec-effects logistic regression model:

b0<-bam(acc~ 1 + igc + s(ctrial, by=igc) + s(sbj, bs="re") + s(ctrial, sbj,
bs="re") , data=data, family=binomial)

summary(b0)
Family: binomial
Link function: logit

Formula:
acc ~ 1 + igc + s(ctrial, by = igc) + s(sbj, bs = "re") + s(ctrial,
     sbj, bs = "re")

I want to know if the wigglyness of the smooths [s(ctrial, by=igc)] is
appropriate, so I used the gam.check() function. The values though for
k-index and p-value are NAs:

gam.check(b0)
Method: fREML   Optimizer: perf newton
full convergence after 5 iterations.
Gradient range [-7.60152e-08,8.12795e-06]
(score 25436.12 & scale 1).
Hessian positive definite, eigenvalue range [0.6271375,24.46625].
Model rank =  168 / 168

Basis dimension (k) checking results. Low p-value (k-index<1) may
indicate that k is too low, especially if edf is close to k'.

                            k'   edf k-index p-value
s(ctrial):igcPA.ideo     9.00  3.83      NA      NA
s(ctrial):igcPA.pseudo   9.00  3.32      NA      NA
s(ctrial):igcCAT.ideo    9.00  3.98      NA      NA
s(ctrial):igcCAT.pseudo  9.00  4.94      NA      NA
s(sbj)                  64.00 54.33      NA      NA
s(ctrial,sbj)           64.00 43.04      NA      NA

Does anyone know why is this?

Thank you in advance for your time,
Fotis

P.S. I am using RStudio Version 0.99.896, R 3.3.0, and mgcv package version
1.8.12.
