Well, yes and no. They are coefficients of terms in the b-spline basis, but that probably isn't very illuminating. You can use termplot() on your fitted model to see the smooth curve that has been fitted and is specified by these estimates. The only splines where you get simple interpretations of individual coefficients are linear splines. -thomas ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
