[package-car:Anova] extracting residuals from Anova for Type II/III Repeated Measures ?

Dear John.

Thank you so much for the patience and time, you have just answered my question!

I was so used to the "mean ss" term from the aov table, that I didn't
stop to look and realize that the values you added in the "Error SS"
and "den Df" columns in the summary tables are actually the residuals
sum of squares Errors and there respective degrees of freedom (and to
that confusion also contributed, I guess, the fact that until your
last e-mail I couldn't reproduce the aov results with Anova for me to
experiment and compare).

I hope that the clarification evoked by this discussion might have
some use for future updates to the Anova (or aov) help files.  And
even if not - I personally feel to have gained a lot from this weeks
correspondents.  So again - thanks a lot John, for your patience and
help.

(p.s: I am adding " r-help at r-project.org" cc'd, so that other people
encountering my question could benefit from your help as well)


With regards,
Tal
