Dear all,

in R / lmerTest() one can get maximum likelihood estimation by setting the argument REML=FALSE in the model statement (default is REML=TRUE). Satterthwaite’s DF are 10.858 for the intercept and 6.884 for the slope. In lme() use method="ML" (default is method="REML"). Below a compilation (in analogy to BE rounded to four decimal figures and grouped by “similarity”):

My preference is REML/Satterthwaite because one could reproduce results in three different software packages. I would avoid NCSS; no idea how the calculation is done.

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
