Hi!!

I am running linear mixed models for my data using 'nest' as the random variable. Sometimes, depending of my response variable and model, I get a message from R telling me 'singular fit'. When I look at the Random Effects table I see the random variable nest has 'Variance = 0.0000; Std Error = 0.0000'.

Can anybody help me understand this and how should I proceed?

Thank you!
