..by some (extensive) trial and error reordering the contrast matrix and the reference level i figured it out myself - for anyone who might find this helpful searching for a similar contrast in the future: this should be the right one:
c2<-rbind("fac2-effect in A"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0), "fac2-effect in B"=c(0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0), "fac2-effect in C"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0), "fac2-effect in D"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1), "fac2-effect, A*B"=c(0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0), "fac2-effect, A*C"=c(0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0), "fac2-effect, A*D"=c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1), "fac2-effect, B*C"=c(0,0,0,0,0,-1,1,0), "fac2-effect, B*D"=c(0,0,0,0,0,-1,0,1), "fac2-effect, C*D"=c(0,0,0,0,0,0,-1,1)) summary(glht(mod,c2)) Kay Cichini wrote: > > hello, > > i was shortly asking the list for help with some interaction contrasts > (see below) for which > i had to change the reference level of the model "on the fly" (i read a > post that this is possible in > multcomp). > > if someone has a clue how this is coded in multcomp; glht() - please point > me there. > > yours, > kay > > > Kay Cichini wrote: >> >> hello list, >> >> i'd very much appreciate help with setting up the >> contrast for a 2-factorial crossed design. >> >> here is a toy example: >> >> library(multcomp) >> >> dat<-data.frame(fac1=gl(4,8,labels=LETTERS[1:4]), >> fac2=rep(c("I","II"),16),y=rnorm(32,1,1)) >> >> mod<-lm(y~fac1*fac2,data=dat) >> >> ## the contrasts i'm interressted in: >> >> c1<-rbind("fac2-effect in A"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0), >> "fac2-effect in B"=c(0,1,0,0,0,1,0,0), >> "fac2-effect in C"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,1,0), >> "fac2-effect in D"=c(0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1), >> "fac2-effect, A*B"=c(0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0), >> "fac2-effect, A*C"=c(0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0), >> "fac2-effect, A*D"=c(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1)) >> >> summary(glht(mod,c1)) >> >> ## now i want to add the remaining combinations >> ## "fac2, B*C" >> ## "fac2, B*D" >> ## "fac2, C*D" >> ## to the simultanous tests to see whether the effects >> ## of fac2 within the levels of fac1 differ between >> ## each combination of the levels of fac1, or not ?? >> >> thanks for any advise! >> >> yours, >> kay >> >> >> > > ----- ------------------------ Kay Cichini Postgraduate student Institute of Botany Univ. of Innsbruck ------------------------ -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/interaction-contrasts-tp2993845p2996987.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
