First, I appoligise for the rooky question, but... I'm trying to obtain standard errors, confidence intervals, etc. from a sample design and have been trouble getting the results for anything other than the basic total or mean for the overall survey from the survey package. For example, using the following dataset, strata,cluster,vol A,1,18.58556192 A,1,12.55175443 A,1,21.65882438 A,1,17.11172946 A,1,15.41713348 A,2,13.9344623 A,2,17.13104821 A,2,14.6806479 A,2,14.68357291 A,2,18.86017714 A,2,20.67642515 A,2,15.15295351 A,2,13.82121102 A,2,12.9110477 A,2,14.83153677 A,2,21.90772687 A,3,18.69795427 A,3,18.45636428 A,3,15.77175793 A,3,15.54715217 A,3,20.31948393 A,3,19.26391445 A,3,15.54750775 A,3,19.18724018 A,4,12.89572151 A,4,12.92047701 A,4,12.64958757 A,4,19.85888418 A,4,19.64057669 A,4,19.19188964 A,4,18.81619298 A,4,21.73670878 A,5,15.99430802 A,5,18.66666517 A,5,21.80441654 A,5,14.22081904 A,5,16.01576433 A,5,14.92497202 A,5,17.95123218 A,5,19.82027165 A,5,19.35698273 A,5,19.10826519 B,6,13.40892677 B,6,14.3956207 B,6,13.82113391 B,6,16.37338569 B,6,19.70159575 B,7,14.74334178 B,7,16.55125245 B,7,12.38329798 B,7,18.16472408 B,7,16.32938475 B,7,16.06465494 B,7,12.63086062 B,7,14.46114813 B,7,21.90134013 B,7,13.81025827 B,7,15.85805494 B,7,20.18195326 B,8,19.05120792 B,8,12.83856639 B,8,12.61360139 B,8,21.30434314 B,8,14.19960469 B,8,17.38397826 B,8,15.66477339 B,8,22.07182834 B,8,12.07487394 B,8,20.36357359 B,8,20.2543677 B,9,14.44499362 B,9,17.77235228 B,9,13.01620902 B,9,18.10976359 B,10,18.22350661 B,10,18.41504728 B,10,17.94735486 B,10,18.39173938 B,10,14.21729704 B,10,16.95753684 B,10,21.11643087 B,10,16.09688752 B,10,19.54707452 B,10,22.00450065 B,10,15.15308873 B,10,14.72488972 B,10,17.65280737 B,10,14.61615255 B,10,12.89525607 B,11,22.35831089 B,11,18.0853187 B,11,22.12815791 B,11,17.74562214 B,11,21.45724242 B,11,20.57933779 B,11,19.97397415 B,11,16.34967424 B,12,22.14385376 B,12,17.82816113 B,12,18.37056381 B,12,16.13152759 B,12,22.06764318 B,12,12.80924472 B,12,18.95522175 B,13,20.40554286 B,13,19.72951878 C,14,15.51581 C,14,15.4836358 C,14,13.35882363 C,14,13.16072916 C,14,21.69168971 C,14,19.09686303 C,14,14.47450457 C,14,12.04870424 C,14,13.33096141 C,14,17.38388981 C,14,16.29015289 C,14,16.32707754 C,14,16.2784054 C,15,15.0170597 C,15,14.95767365 C,15,15.20739614 C,15,22.10458509 C,15,12.3362457 C,15,19.87895753 C,15,18.8363682 C,15,16.43738666 C,15,12.84570744 C,15,15.99869357 C,15,14.42551321 C,15,13.63489872 C,15,15.67179885 C,16,14.61700901 C,16,14.64864676 C,16,14.13014582 C,16,21.7637441 C,16,20.66825543 C,16,17.05977818 C,16,17.80118916 C,16,15.16641698 where this is read into stand.data. When I use the following survey designs, srv1 <- svydesign(ids=~1, strata=~strata, data=stand.data ) or, srv1 <- svydesign(ids=~cluster, strata=~strata, data=stand.data ) with, print( svytotal( ~vol, srv1 ) ) I only obtain the total,
print( svytotal( ~vol, srv1 ) )
total SE
vol 2377 34.464
or worse,
print( svytotal( ~vol + strata, srv1 ) )
total SE
vol 2377.0 34.464
strataA 42.0 0.000
strataB 64.0 0.000
strataC 34.0 0.000
which reports the number of observations in each of the strata. I'm sure
this is a RTFM question, but I just need a start. The size of each "plot"
is 0.04 units (hectares) and I want to be able to quickly examine working
up each sample with and without clusters (this is going to be part of a
larger simulation study).
I'm trying to not use SAS for this and hate to admit defeat.
Thanks,
Jeff.
