You have been posting to the R-help list long enough so that you should have learned by now *not* to post in html. Your code is mangled so as to be unreadable.

A few comments:

(1) Your data frame "data1" seems to have a mysterious (and irrelevant?) column named "data1" as well.

(2) The covariance matrix of your coefficient estimates is indeed (as you hint) a constant multiple of (X^T X)^{-1}. So do:

    X <- model.matrix(~response*week,data=data1)
    S <- solve(t(X)%*%X)
    print(S)

and you will see the same pattern of constancy that your results exhibit.

(3) You could get the results you want much more easily, without all the
fooling around buried in your (illegible) code, by doing:

    mod <- lm(response ~ (region - 1)/week,data=data1)
    summary(mod)

cheers,

Hi all,
  I have the following data called "data1". After fitting the ancova model
with different slopes and intercepts for each region, I calculated the
regression coefficients and the corresponding standard error. The standard
error (for intercept or for slope) are all the same for different regions.
Is there something wrong?
  I know the SE is related to (X^T X)^-1, where X is design matrix. So does
this happen whenever each factor level has the same set of values for
"week"?
     Thanks.
