factor-specific random-effects variance
I found this blog post: https://rpubs.com/bbolker/factorvar and it looks rather difficult to obtain factor-specific random effects (without the extra correlations). What would be wrong with the simpler approach: dependent~fixedeffects+(0+dummy1a|randomvar)+ (0+dummy1b|randomvar) where dummy1a and dummy1b are the same variable but coded inversely 0-1 and 1-0?
