[FWIW, questions on nlme/lmer might better be directed to r-sig-mixed-mod...@lists.r-project.org] Do you have the nlme package loaded simultaneously (you shouldn't) ? I can get almost (but not quite) the same error message by doing the following: > require(lme4) Loading required package: lme4 Loading required package: Matrix Loading required package: lattice > fm1 <- lmer(Yield ~ 1 + (1 | Batch), Dyestuff) > fixef(fm1) (Intercept) 1527.5 > > library(nlme) Attaching package: 'nlme' The following object(s) are masked from package:lme4 : BIC, fixef, lmList, ranef, VarCorr > fixef(fm1) Error in UseMethod("fixef") : no applicable method for 'fixef' applied to an object of class "mer" ______________________________________________ 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.
