Hello,

I'm running R 1.8.1 on a Mac G4 with Dual 800 MHz CPU, 1.5 GB RAM, and sufficient disk space.

I have loaded the boot package version 1.2-15.

I defined a function to pass to the statistic argument which estimates a vector (length = 6) of parameter estimates; none are variances.

I defined a function to pass to the ran.gen argument for parametric resampling.

I created a boot object with R = 10000; the boot object appears to have the appropriate components of a parametric bootstrap object.

When I pass the boot object to the boot.ci function I can get CIs of types = norm, basic, and perc on each parameter estimate.

However, bca CIs are not returned and there is the following error message:

Error in empinf(boot.out, index = index, t = t.o, ...) :
        Influence values cannot be found from  a parametric bootstrap

To knowledge I should be able to get bca CIs on a parametric bootstrap object.

Any suggestions?

Nathan
