Hi all,

Windows XP
R 2.10.0

I am trying to generate predictions from a binomial mixed model using glmer.
the models is as follows:

mod.PN <- glmer(PN_out~ as.factor(intr3) + transcode + Yr + (Yr|ID)
family=binomial,data=partset, na.action=na.omit)

where PN_out is a two column binomial variable

I then used the code suggested by BErt Gunter to predict from lmer:
here I am interested in making from two new predicting two new observations
where I hold everything fixed other than the factor intr3

predPN <- model.matrix(terms(mod.PN),newDat) %*% fixef(mod.PN)

this seems to work fine and the I print the predictions

print(PredPN)
    [1]                 [2]
2.358722     2.312340


However I am not certain what I am looking at here,  my best guess is that
each of these could the odds (p/1-p). But I am not at all sure in my guess,
any insights would be appreciated


Best,

Spencer
