Hi, R users- I'm estimating random effects models with cross-level interactions; I want to interact each of a vector of level-1 variables with each of a vector of level-2 variables. Here's the code:
==================== #create data frame with level-1 variables k <- as.data.frame(cbind(robo, asalto, secuestro, asesinato)) #create data frame with level-2 variables l <- as.data.frame(cbind(IDH_IDH, IDH_ingpc, eco_pb, IM_indice, tasa_robo, hom_tasa, totdelitos1, totdelitos2, total, pri, pan, prd)) #get cross-level interactions for (i in 1:length(k)) { for (j in 1:length(l)) { print(summary(lmer(hrprotcrim ~ k[,i]*l[,j] + (k[,i] | Municipio)))) } } ====================== The code works and produces 48 (4 level-1 x 12 level-2) sets of output. The problem is, the output is illegible because instead of the variable names, I get the indices: [output] ================================== Linear mixed model fit by REML ['lmerMod'] Formula: hrprotcrim ~ k[, i] * l[, j] + (k[, i] | Municipio) REML criterion at convergence: 8801.4 Scaled residuals: Min 1Q Median 3Q Max -2.4447 -0.7017 -0.2639 0.6766 3.0835 Random effects: Groups Name Variance Std.Dev. Corr Municipio (Intercept) 1.067868 1.0334 k[, i] 0.005387 0.0734 1.00 Residual 2.976150 1.7252 Number of obs: 2163, groups: Municipio, 180 Fixed effects: Estimate Std. Error t value (Intercept) 2.710847 0.101715 26.651 k[, i] -0.056720 0.355802 -0.159 l[, j] 0.002701 0.002289 1.180 k[, i]:l[, j] 0.006510 0.006340 1.027 Correlation of Fixed Effects: (Intr) k[, i] l[, j] k[, i] -0.048 l[, j] -0.514 0.028 k[,i]:l[,j] 0.034 -0.566 -0.072 ================================== Two questions: 1) How can I get variable names instead of indices in the above output 2) How can I estimate this with "mapply" instead of the double loop? Here's the code for "mapply" M4 <- mapply(function(k,l){summary(lmer(hrprotcrim ~ k*l + (k | Municipio)))}) And here's what I get: list() I'd be grateful for any pointers.
