前言
为什么要用混合线性模型:比如测量了不同收入水平的人群的收入和幸福感,但每个群体内收入水平是不同的,幸福感也不同,两者之间的关系也是不同的, 如果直接用一般线性模型,会造成错误的结论,这个时候要考察的是可以推广到不同收入群体的收入和幸福感之间的关系 (即考察的关系不仅可以应用于当前的收入群体,还可以应用到其他的群体)。这时候需要用到混合线性模型(或者层次线性模型)。
R
R 中混合线性模型要依靠lme4或者lmerTest数据包(强烈推荐后者,因为会输出显著性)
library(lmerTest)
基本表达式
fit = lmer(data = , formula = DV ~ Fixed_Factor + (Random_intercept + Random_Slope | Random_Factor))
参数说明:
data - 要处理的数据集;
formula - 表达式;
DV - 因变量;
Fixed_Factor - 固定因子,即考察的自变量;
Random_intercept - 随机截距,即认为不同群体的因变量的分布不同 (可以理解成有些人出生就在终点,而你是在起点......);
Random_Slope - 随机斜率,即认为不同群体受固定因子的影响是不同的 (可以理解成别人花两个小时能赚10000元,而你只能挣个被试费......);
Random_Factor - 随机因子;
数据整理形式
数据整理可参考politeness
该数据收集了若干被试(subject)的性别(gender),以及用不同的态度(attitude)在不同场合(scenario)下说话的音高(frequency)。 这是一个典型的被试内设计(7 * 2设计)。
结果查看
以politeness 数据为例,首先加载数据包并将scenario变量变为因子变量。
politeness = readr::read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/usplos/self-programming/master/politeness_data.csv')
politeness$scenario = factor(politeness$scenario)
library(lmerTest)
建立模型,用summary()函数查看结果, 这里需要注意:如果设置随机效应,模型可能无法收敛或者自由度溢出,这个时候需要调整或者取消随机效应:
fit1 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude|subject) + (1+attitude|gender), data = politeness)
summary(fit1)
结果为:

其中,随机效应的结果如下,可以看出确实对不同的被试或者性别来说,态度的影响是不同的,而且音高本身也是有差别的。

注意,这里的固定效应不是主效应和交互作用,要查看主效应和交互作用需要用anova()函数:
anova(fit1)
结果如下,可看出只有场景的主效应显著,态度的主效应和交互作用都不显著。

随机斜率的取舍
在上面建立的模型中,包含随机斜率和随机截距,但是注意到,有两个固定效应,是把两个固定效应及其交互作用全都作为随机效应,还是选其中部分作为随机效应呢?这里我们课题组的标准是:首先考虑全模型,即如下命令:
fitAll = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude * scenario|subject) + (1+attitude * scenario|gender), data = politeness)
结果如下,模型出现问题,观测量的个数小于随机因子的个数。
错误: number of observations (=83) <= number of random effects (=84) for term (1 + attitude * scenario | subject);
the random-effects parameters and the residual variance (or scale parameter) are probably unidentifiable
移除交互作用后,模型如下:
fitAll2 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude + scenario|subject) + (1+attitude + scenario|gender), data = politeness)
结果如下,模型无法收敛,这说明还需要调整模型:
Warning messages:
1: In commonArgs(par, fn, control, environment()) :
maxfun < 10 * length(par)^2 is not recommended.
2: In optwrap(optimizer, devfun, getStart(start, rho$lower, rho$pp), :
convergence code 1 from bobyqa: bobyqa -- maximum number of function evaluations exceeded
下一步,要选择移除哪一个随机因子,以及移除subject还是gender上的随机因子,于是有四种模型:
fitAll3_1 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude|subject) + (1+attitude + scenario|gender), data = politeness);
fitAll3_2 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+scenario|subject) + (1+attitude + scenario|gender), data = politeness);
fitAll3_3 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude+ scenario|subject) + (1+attitude|gender), data = politeness);
fitAll3_4 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude + scenario|subject) + (1+scenario|gender), data = politeness)
同时要建立一个零模型(只有随机截距):
fitZero = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1|subject) + (1|gender), data = politeness)
接下来依次比较零模型和以上的四个模型,用到的是anova()函数:
anova(fitZero, fitAll3_1)

结果四个模型和零模型都不显著,这种情况下,选取p值最小的模型,即fitAll3_3,虽然包含随机斜率的模型和不包含随机斜率的模型无明显差异,但是仍然要考虑随机斜率,因为实验中的被试只是个样本,不能保证样本之外的个体随机斜率也没有影响。
目前暂定的标准(待定)是:
优先考虑随机斜率
优先考虑全模型
舍弃或削减模型的标准是该模型不能收敛,或者自由度溢出
优先削减交互作用的随机效应
当遇到需削减同水平位置的随机因子时(比如两个随机因子需要舍弃一个时),应考虑所有情况,并将其和零模型作比较;优先保留与零模型有显著差异的模型;当比较都不显著时,优先考虑保留p较小的模型。
调整固定因子比较基线
上面的固定效应的结果中,是以scenario的第一个水平作为基线,如果想人为设置比较基线,最稳定的方法是用factor(..., levels = )重新编码因子, 并设置水平的顺序,这里将最后一个水平设为基线:
politeness$scenario = factor(politeness$scenario, levels = c(7,1:6))
fit1 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1+attitude|subject) + (1+attitude|gender), data = politeness)
summary(fit1)
结果如下,看到固定因子的基线及其相应的数值都变化了:

这种比较(和基线比较)只是R里的其中一种比较方式,R里的比较方式共有如下五种:
contrasts = contr.helmert:第二个水平对照第一个水平,第三个水平对照前两个的均值,第四个水平对照前三个的均 值,以此类推
contrasts = contr.poly:基于正交多项式的对照,用于趋势分析(线性、二次、三次等)和等距水平的有序因子
contrasts = contr.sum:对照变量之和限制为0。也称作偏差找对,对各水平的均值与所有水平的均值进行比较
contrasts = contr.treatment:各水平对照基线水平(默认第一个水平)。也称作虚拟编码。(这个是无序因子常用的编码形式,也是LMM常用的和默认的)
contrasts = contr.SAS:类似于contr.treatment,只是基线水平变成了最后一个水平。
比如不想和基线比较,而是想看每种水平和总体的均值的偏差程度,需要设置成contr.sum的格式,可以用options(contrasts = )来调节(注意,option()设置的时候需要同时设置无序因子和有序因子的比较方法):
options(contrasts = c('contr.sum','contr.poly'))
fit1 = lmer(frequency ~ scenario * attitude + (1|subject) + (1|gender), data = politeness)
summary(fit1)
结果如下,看出第1、2、4、5类场合和均值有显著差别,其它的比较方法读者可自行尝试。

简单效应分析
注意,固定效应(Fixed Efeects),主效应(Main Effects) 和 简单效应(Simple Effects) 是三个不同的概念。 虽然这里交互作用并不显著,但是还是要演示一下如何进行简单效应分析:
library(emmeans)
emmeans(fit1, pairwise~attitude|scenario) # 比较不同场合下不同态度之间的差别
结果分为两部分,第一部分输出不同scenario水平下,不同attitude的均值、标准误自由度等信息,如下:

scenario = 6:

看出在第7、3类场合下,不同态度的音高不同,其余的没有显著差别。
广义混合线性模型
如果因变量不是连续变量,则需要用广义线性模型。
R中做GLMM(Genaralized Linear Mixed Model)用到的函数是:
glmer(data = , formula = , family = ,...)
其中 family = 有多种不同的选择(注意是字符型的),分别如下:
binomial - link = “logit”;
gaussian - link = "identity";
gamma - link = "inverse";
inverse.gaussian - link = "1/mu^2";
poisson - link = "log";
quasi - link = "identity", variance = "constant";
quasibinomial - link = "logit";
quasipoisson - link = "log";
其他的设置和lmer()是一样的。
