Dear R users, As I have no answer to my las reply i try again. If the binomal negative link has never been implemented in the lmer fonction, and as it was working when I did it some months ago, What kind of result did I get?
This is the exemple of the answer of R when i was using lmer with negative binomal family: m1a<-lmer(atpos~ninter+saison+milieu*zone+(1|code),family=neg.bin(0.429),method="Laplace",data=manu) summary(m1a) Generalized linear mixed model fit using Laplace Formula: atpos ~ ninter + saison + milieu * zone + (1 | code) Data: manu Family: Negative Binomial(log link) AIC BIC logLik deviance 125.1 147.6 -54.57 109.1 Thank you for your answers, Best Regards Emmanuelle E.
