I need to analyze one dataset that contain two variables measured in the same subject and one across subjects.
The variables are:
id = subject id, factor with 83 levels
tissue = factor with 2 levels (within-subj)
time = factor with 2 levels (within-subj)
group = factor with 2 levels (between-subj)
batch = factor with 2 levels (partially confounded with time).
Would the following model allow me to test specific contrasts correctly? I worry about the degrees of freedom for the emmeans.
Would a random intercept only model (1|id)
be enough?
I tried something like:
set.seed(10)
library("lme4")
library("emmeans")
# download dataset into df1 object
source("https://pastebin.com/raw/inQJ2kXy")
fit1 <- lmer(value~batch+group*tissue+time + (1|id:time) + (1|id:tissue),
data = df1)
# alternatively
fit2 <- lmer(value~batch+group*tissue+time + (1|id) + (1|id:time)
+ (1|id:tissue), data = df1)
# Get speficific contrasts with emmeans
cont.matrix <- data.frame(
"tub-other_lung_BF" = c(0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0),
"tub-other_blood_BF" = c(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1),
"lung-blood_tuber_BF" = c(0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1, 0, 0),
"lung-blood_other_BF" = c(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, -1),
"AT-BT_blood_tub" = c(0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, -1, 0)
)
fit1 %>%
emmeans(., ~group*tissue+time,
data = df1,
contr = cont.matrix, adjust = "mvt")
