Re: R-square statistic



Dear Haja,

ASREML does not report an Rsqu value but in many cases it will not
be difficult to work one out from the ANOVA table when the first term
is mu and there are no fixed effects absorbed (in the SPARSE equations).

Ignoring the mu line, calculate the relative variance accounted in the model
as the sum of products of df x R-incr.  The relative error variance
is the error DF so R-square  

              Relative Model Variance
              -----------------------
              SUm of both components.
  E.g.  in shf example [9.2]
  
  Anova is    mu      1    853.96
              c(var) 24     13.02
              
              Error 125
              
              RMV = 24*13.02 = 312.48
              
              So R^2  is   312.48/(125 +312.48)   = 0.714
              
  Note that Rsqu is a concept from fixed effect models and it is not
  obvious to me how it should be defined in multistrata mixed models.
  
  You can of course do the same calculation for GLMM models but I am
  not aware of this being widely used and its meaning is a little less
  direct becasue there it is with respect to a working variable
  which changes as the model changes so has a moving basis.
  
  Others comments are welcome.

     While they watched, He was taken up,

     And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, 
          behold two men stood by them in white apparel who also said
     "Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven?
          This same Jesus who was taken up from you into heaven,
     will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven."
