Where is the problem? I am getting craxy! Your code is a complete mess and thus unreadable because you posted in HTML. Cleaning up and doing this LMTEST <- function(mY, mX, mZ)#mY, mX, mZ must be matrices! #returns the LM test statistic and the degree of freedom {iT = dim(mY)[1] ip = dim(mY)[2] iDF = dim(mZ)[2]*ip mE = mY - mX%*%solve(t(mX)%*%mX)%*%t(mX)%*%mY # the error starts from the above step (t(mX)%*%mX)%*%t(mX)%*%mY RSS0 = t(mE)%*%mE mXX = cbind(mX, mZ) mK = mE - mXX%*%solve(t(mXX)%*%mXX)%*%t(mXX)%*%mE RSS1 = t(mK)%*%mK dTR = sum(diag(solve(RSS0)%*%RSS1)) LM = iT*(ip-dTR) pval = 1-pchisq(LM,df=iDF) return( c(pval, LM, iDF) ) } set.seed(1) N <- 20 mX <- matrix(runif(N),ncol=1) mY <- matrix(runif(N),ncol=1) mZ <- matrix(runif(N),ncol=1) LMTEST(mY,mX,mZ) the answer I got was: [1] 0.004965514 7.891955826 1.000000000 So it must be your data. Are you sure they are numeric? Have you checked with str(mX) etc?
