How to do GLMM with a categorical dependent variable?

How to do GLMM if the dependent variable is categorical in R? I’m trying to run a logistic regression on categorical dependent variables data; The dependent variable is a choice of Yes/No/Unsure. I want to use glmer in lme4, how do I specify the family type?

What should the code look like for GLMM?

Keep in mind, though, that you will want to likely include random slopes for group, tone, and focus (or at least test to see if they are significant). The code would look something like this, but only if all of the three predictors are at the lowest level in the multilevel structure of the data:

When do you say there are levels of an independent variable?

In an experiment, a researcher wants to understand how changes in an independent variable affect a dependent variable. When an independent variable has multiple experimental conditions, we say that there are levels of the independent variable. For example, suppose a teacher wants to know how three different studying techniques affect exam scores.

When to recode dependent variable to be dichotomous?

When I have 3 levels of a categorical dependent variable, I have fit three separate models before: It seems like you are OK with collapsing across Levels 2 and 3 (No and Unsure). So what I would do is recode your dependent variable to be dichotomous:

Can a multinominal model be used in GLM?

Also, the glm families does not include a multinominal model, and I’m not sure whether the binominal model (as I did above) can be used, despite glm () above not throwing an error. Any help is very welcome. PS In reality, I need a mixed model, which supposedly can be fitted by glmmPQL () in the MASS library, which depends om glm ().

Is the GLMMs an extension of generalized linear regression?

Alternatively, you could think of GLMMs as an extension of generalized linear models (e.g., logistic regression) to include both fixed and random effects (hence mixed models). The general form of the model (in matrix notation) is:

Which is the general form of generalized linear mixed models?

Alternatively, you could think of GLMMs as an extension of generalized linear models (e.g., logistic regression) to include both fixed and random effects (hence mixed models). The general form of the model (in matrix notation) is: y = X β + Z u + ε
