Dear D. Labes!

...

The Mixed Procedure


                     Iteration History


Iteration    Evaluations    -2 Res Log Like       Criterion

        5              1       272.91032497      0.00000001


OK, I end up after 7 iterations at:
-2* REML log(likelihood)      251.724
Same result if use the default convergence criterion (10-10), yours ((10-8), or approach numeric resolution.

        Covariance Parameter Estimates


Cov Parm     Subject    Group          Estimate


FA(1,1)      Subject                     0.5756

FA(2,1)      Subject                     0.4485

FA(2,2)      Subject                     0.3981

Residual     Subject    Treatment R      0.1862 (CV=0.4524)

Residual     Subject    Treatment T      0.3269


Closer match than we had in our previous example...
Final variance parameter estimates:
                 lambda(1,1)_11     0.575597
                 lambda(1,2)_11     0.448489
                 lambda(2,2)_11     0.355511
Var(PERIOD*TREATMEN*SUBJECT)_21     0.186160
Var(PERIOD*TREATMEN*SUBJECT)_22     0.359059

            Var(Residual)       0.18245672


❝ Very near to the MIXED results. But maybe this coincidence is by chance.


Who knows?

❝ But never trust estimates with questionable convergence in REML (WINNONLIN

❝ definitely warns at least "Output is suspect", R's lme() will throw an error if

❝ not converged and will not give you any parameter estimate or will not give

❝ any CI for the covariance parameters if VarCov is not positive definite, but

❝ the incredible [image] tells all estimates

❝ as if nothing happens :angry:).


Well, if I ask PHX/WNL for intermediate results (besides many pages of Matrazen aka matrices) I got an additional
Warning 11090: Asymptotic covariance matrix not computed. Information matrix is deemed singular.

They’ll tell you what can’t be done and why.
Then do it.    Robert A. Heinlein
