Bayesian Linear Mixed Models - categorical fixed effect with more than two levels

FLRei

Hi,

I have a question regarding Bayesian mixed effect models. I actually use R to run the models, but I ran into an issue with one of my models and tried to run the same in JASP. In this model, one of my fixed effects has 6 levels. I receive estimates for 5 of the levels compared to the reference level, but first I would like to know whether the fixed effect has a general main effect (i.e., not per level). So far, I could only figure out how to get results for main and interaction effects via ANOVA summary, which is also automatically shown in JASP when I run the frequentist analysis. When I then run the Bayesian analysis, I again only get estimates for the separate levels. Is there any way to get the results in the ANOVA summary table also for Bayesian analyses?

Thanks in advance,

Faya

Dear Faya,

I'll forward this to our expert. Sorry for the tardy response.
