I am trying to obtain the coefficients from a regression (performed using lm). I would like to get the value for the slope (i.e. estimate) for pre from the following regression:
fitchange <- lm(post-pre~pre,data=mydata2) I have tried the following without any success: zz <- summary(fitchange)["coefficients"] class(zz) print(zz) zz[[2,1]] zz[2,1] zz["pre","Estimate"] I clearly don't know how to select elements from the list returned by the summary function. A reproducible version of my code follows: mydata2 <-structure(list(pre = c(71.3302299440613, 86.2703384845455, 120.941698468568, 80.9020778388552, 84.9927752038908, 77.9108032451793, 111.007107108483, 93.288442414475, 126.097826796255, 111.63734644637), post = c(45.9294556667686, 114.661937978585, 138.501558726477, 55.355775963925, 97.7906200355594, 71.1008233796004, 149.308274695789, 122.828428213951, 143.690814568562, 116.607579975539)), class = "data.frame", row.names = c(NA, -10L)) fitchange <- lm(post-pre~pre,data=mydata2) zz <- summary(fitchange)["coefficients"] class(zz) print(zz) zz[[2,1]] zz[2,1] zz["pre","Estimate"] Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
