Hi all,
I'd like to fit a random intercept and random slope model. In my
data, there are three groups. I want to have different random
intercept for each group but the same random slope effect for all
three groups. I used the following R command.
However, there seems to be some problem. Any suggestions?
mod2 <- lmer(result ~ group*time+(0+group1+ group2 +
group3+time|lot), na.action=na.omit, data=alldata)
Model is not identifiable...
summary from lme4 is returned
some computational error has occurred in lmerTest
