Hello,
I am currently working on the data analysis for my Ph.D. project comparing the probability of occurrence of species density and richness (in hectare basis) between three different land use types using count data. Due to the design of the field study, I decided to use GLMM with Poisson distribution as I have various random effects and sites as a random effect that need to be accounted for. The model seems to be doing the job, however, I am not really sure how to report the results. I am using the lme4 package in the R console to analyze my data.
Thank you
You would report it similar to how you would report an OLS anova.
Usually, people won't report anything about the random effects, except to mention that they treated as random effects in the model. But you can also do a hypothesis test on the random effects.
BTW, the last time I checked lme4 doesn't have methods to report p-values of groups. The authors take that stance on principle. But you can use the lmerTest package to get an anova-like table.
