Hi I think the problem is related to specifying "Tratamento" both as a fixed factor and in the error term. I attached a script with a reproducible example that shows a similar output. I do not know the details of the original data and the questions of interest, but maybe a model including "Tratamento" is more what you wanted to implement.
Regards, Christoph ## R-Script library(nlme) ## Generating the data set.seed(1) ziel <- rep(c(-6,8,20), each = 40) + rep(rnorm(15, 0, 20), each = 4) + rep(rnorm(60, 0, 10), each = 2) + rnorm(120, 0, 3) dat <- data.frame(y = ziel, fix = factor(rep(1:3, each = 40)), R1 = factor(rep(1:15, each = 8)), R2 = factor(rep(1:60, each = 2))) ## Model including "fix" as fixed and random effect. res2 <- aov(y ~ fix + Error(fix/R1/R2), data = dat) summary(res2) reslme2 <- lme(y ~ fix , data = dat, random = ~ 1|fix/R1/R2) summary(reslme2) anova(reslme2) ## Model including "fix" as fixed factor. res1 <- aov(y ~ fix + Error(R1/R2), data = dat) summary(res1) reslme <- lme(y ~ fix , data = dat, random = ~ 1|R1/R2) summary(reslme) anova(reslme) -------------------------------------------------------------- Christoph Buser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Seminar fuer Statistik, LEO C13 ETH (Federal Inst.
