Expanded on my understanding of how missing data are handled in a mixed effects model.
Jan 10, 2011 at 13:22 comment added fabians ...if by "handle" you mean ignore/remove all observations with missing values for any of the covariates or responses.
Jan 9, 2011 at 21:34 comment added mpiktas @Rom, if you do not know how to interpret results, try formulating it as a new question.
Jan 7, 2011 at 16:04 comment added Rom Thanks for answers. Sorry, but I'm not an expert neither a statistician, I don't handle R. I've just two statistical softwares, SPSS 16 or STATISTICA 7.0 from StatSoft and I'm quite lost! I've tried mixed models with SPSS with fixed effect for reproductive status and dose as the repeated effect. however I'm quite confuse, I'dont know how interprete the results.
