The standard diagnostics which you have seen in 'lm' are not
implemented for 'lme4'. You have to do it yourself, but it's
not *too* hard:
library(lme4)
## from ?lmer
fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject), sleepstudy)
f <- fitted(fm1)
r <- residuals(fm1)
plot(f,r)
sm <- loess(r~f)
v <- seq(min(f),max(f),length=101)
lines(v,predict(sm,data.frame(f=v)),col=2)
Further questions about lme4 should probably go to the
r-sig-mixed-models mailing list.
