Dear All, I want to fit a two-level cross-classified random effect poisson model using LME4. However, the documentation for this pacakge seems really thin. I have the NLME book, but there is not much about mixed generalized linear models. Any suggestions about where I should begin? Thanks! Best, Shige

lme4 is work in progress, so documentation is still a bit limited. You may try Douglas Bates' article http://cran.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2005-1.pdf to give you a starter to understand the syntax. Dieter

There are several worked examples (and will soon be more) of lmer usage in the mlmRev package. Also see the vignette in that package. As Dieter kindly mentioned this is a work in progress. The documentation will ultimately be in the form of a book with the working title "Multilevel Modeling in R".
