Anova Test- Separate Groups with Two Factor Comparison - r

Good morning,
I am trying to run some ANOVA tests on my dataset (using R) and I keep getting errors. I am trying to compare the average percentage of correct responses, as a factor of what "group" the subjects were in and what session/day it was. However, I have two separate conditions that I need to analyze separately.
So essentially, I need to compare PctCorrect in Condition 1, between groups and sessions and then do the same thing for condition 2.
I attempted using this code:
aov(ext$Pct.Correct[ext$Condition=="NC-EXT"]~ext$Group*ext$Session, data=ext)
and I got the following error:
Error in model.frame.default(formula = ext$Pct.Correct[ext$Condition
== : variable lengths differ (found for 'ext$Group')
I ran this code to make sure that all of my values were even:
mytable <- table(ext$Session, ext$Group, ext$Condition)
ftable(mytable)
And they were all the same value (which was to be expected), so I am not sure what's wrong.
I am very new to R so it's entirely possible that I am doing this completely wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You are filtering the left side of the equation and not filtering the right side, thus the "variable length error".
You could try filter your dataframe in the data= option like this:
aov(Pct.Correct ~ Group* Session, data=ext[ext$Condition=="NC-EXT",])

Attempting to run cor.test with outliers

I am new to R so I apologize this if this a fairly basic question. I am analyzing the nycflights13 data set and I am attempting to run a cor. test on the distance and departure delay (dep_delay). I want to take the out any outliers prior to running the correlation. However when I do this, I end up getting an error due to the lengths not being the same. I am just wondering how to fix this problem. Do I need to replace those missing values with NA? If so, how do I do that. Do I need to create new parameters that removes all the rows with missing info? Below is a photo of my code
I tried rewriting my code several ways to see if there was a better way to do this but I ultimately got the same error. I think I just want replacing the outliers properly.
You could try to union the indices that are not outliers, like this:
delay_thresh = quantile(flights$dep_delay,p=c(0.003, 0.997), na.rm=T)
dist_thresh = quantile(flights$distance,p=c(0.003, 0.997), na.rm=T)
indices = union(
which(flights$dep_delay>delay_thresh[1] & flights$dep_delay<delay_thresh[2]),
which(flights$distance>dist_thresh[1] & flights$distance<dist_thresh[2])
)
cor.test(flights$dep_delay[indices], flights$distance[indices])

I can't figure out why R thinks that my dataset contains element pair duplicats in my dataset?

When I run my fixed effects regression as shown below I get an error saying that I have duplicates within my dataset. This is the error: "Error in pdim.default(index[1], index[[2]]) : duplicate couples (id-time)"!
fe_distance <- plm(total_trip_distance ~ apparentTemperature+summary+AREA+POPULATION+bar+nightclub+hospital+social_facility, data = regression1, model= "within", index=c("ZIPCODE", "time"))
To form the dataset I grouped by ZIPCODE and time so I don't understand how I could possibly get duplicates within the elements. I was thinking it could be because of the type of variable that the variable was stored as, however changing that doesn't seem to solve my error.
Any recommendations would be very appreciated!
You can check for any duplicate pairings between zipcode and time via sum(duplicated(regression1[,c('ZIPCODE','time')])). If this is greater than 0, then you do have duplicates, and should check to see if there is anything unexpected in your original data (or any errors that could have resulted in the grouping step).

Error in plsm... manifest variables must be contained in data

I am trying to make a PLS-SEM model and I am using the plsm() function in R from the semPLS package. However, at first I got an error saying:
The latent variables are not allowed to coincide with names of observed variables.
I understood it, but after going through my input and even in my measurement model matrix adding single-factor constructs (directly measured variables) I now get the following:
mod <- plsm(data = survey, strucmod = smin, measuremod = mmin)
Error in plsm(data = survey, strucmod = smin, measuremod = mmin) :
The manifest variables must be contained in the data.
I am at a loss as to how I should proceed. It seems that whenever I "fix" one problem, it directly causes another. Does anyone have any examples aside from the standard mobi example from the package where I could see how it's done when I have both latent and directly measured variables?
Found the code for the function, but now I'm even more confused.
https://github.com/cran/semPLS/blob/master/R/plsm.R
Could anyone explain in a simple manner how I am supposed to name my df columns, and the measurement model to avoid this problem?
don't know if you ever solved this, but i just had a similar issue, and seemed to be the only other person. i ended up getting this solved through some trial and error.
I created three tables:
structmodel: SM - column names: Source|Target
measurement model: MM - Column names: Source|Target
Data: Column names - Measurement headers
I converted the sm and mm tables to a matrix
datamatrix_SM = as.matrix(SM)
datamatrix_MM = as.matrix(MM)

How do I use prodlim function with a non-binary variable in formula?

I am trying to (eventually) plot data by groups, using the prodlim function.
I'm adjusting and adapting code that someone else (not available for questions) has written, and I'm not very familiar with the prodlim library/function. There are definitely other ways to do what I'd like to, but I'm trying to keep it consistent with what the previous person did.
I have code that works, when dividing the data into 2 groups, but when I try to adjust for a 4 group situation, I get an error.
Of note, the data is coming over from SAS using StatTransfer, which has been working fine.
I am new to coding, but I have compared the dataframes I'm trying to work with. The second is just a subset of the first (where the code does work), with all the same variables, and both of the variables I'm trying to group by are integer values.
Hist(medpop$dz_time, medpop$dz_status) works just fine, so the problem must be with the prodlim function, and I haven't understood much of what I've looked up about it, sadly :/ But it the documentation seems to indicate it supports continuous or categorical variables, and doesn't seem limited to binary either. None of the options seem applicable as I understand them.
this works:
M <- prodlim(Hist(dz_time, dz_status)~med, data=pop)
where med is a binary value =1 when a member of this population is taking it, and dz is a disease that some portion develop.
this does not:
(either of these get the error as below)
N <- prodlim(Hist(dz_time, dz_status)~strength, data=medpop)
N <- prodlim(Hist(dz_time, dz_status)~strength, data=pop, subset=pop$med==1)
medpop = the subset of the original population taking the med,
strength = categorical variable ("1","2","3","4")
For the line that does work, the next step is just plot(M), giving a plot with two lines, med==0 and med==1 (showing cumulative incidence of dz_status by dz_time).
For the other line, I get an error saying
Error in KernSmooth::dpik(cumtabx/N, kernel = "box") :
scale estimate is zero for input data
I don't know what that means or how to fix it.. :/

Error while using rarecurve() in R

I am using vegan::rarecurve on community data.
lac.com.data<-wisconsin(lac.com.data)
rarecurve(lac.com.data)
Unfortunately, I am getting an error and cannot figure out how to fix it.
Error in seq.default(1, tot[i], by = step) : wrong sign in 'by' argument
I tried
rarecurve(lac.com.data,step=1)
to no avail.
I already generated a tabasco() graph and performed a Wisconsin standardization on the data frame without any problem.
There is no reproducible example. However, your usage is wrong. Function rarecurve needs input data of counts: it samples individuals from each sampling unit (row), and therefore you must have data on individuals. The error is caused by the use of wisconsin(lac.com.data): after that all rowSums(lac.com.data) will be 1, and your data are non-integers. You cannot use rarecurve for wisconsin() transformed data or any other non-integer data. Here the error manifests because the estimated numbers of individuals (rowSums of transformed data which are all 1) are lower than the number of species (>1).
Obviously we need to check input in rarecurve. We assumed that people would know what kind input is needed, but we were wrong.
