fitrm
Fit repeated measures model
Description
returns a repeated measures model, specified by rm
= fitrm(t
,modelspec
)modelspec
, fitted
to the variables in the table or dataset array t
. The model
rm
is returned as a RepeatedMeasuresModel
object. For more information about the properties of this model object, see RepeatedMeasuresModel
.
returns a repeated measures model with additional options specified by one or more
name-value arguments. For example, you can specify the hypothesis for the
within-subject factors.rm

)
Examples
Fit a Repeated Measures Model
Load the fisheriris
data set.
load fisheriris
The column vector species
consists of iris flowers of three different species: setosa, versicolor, and virginica. The double matrix meas
consists of four types of measurements for the flowers: the length and width of sepals and petals in centimeters.
Store the data in a table array.
t = table(species,meas(:,1),meas(:,2),meas(:,3),meas(:,4),... VariableNames=["species","meas1","meas2","meas3","meas4"]); Meas = table([1 2 3 4]',VariableNames="Measurements");
Fit a repeated measures model, where the measurements are the responses and the species is the predictor variable.
rm = fitrm(t,"meas1-meas4~species",WithinDesign=Meas)
rm = RepeatedMeasuresModel with properties: Between Subjects: BetweenDesign: [150x5 table] ResponseNames: {'meas1' 'meas2' 'meas3' 'meas4'} BetweenFactorNames: {'species'} BetweenModel: '1 + species' Within Subjects: WithinDesign: [4x1 table] WithinFactorNames: {'Measurements'} WithinModel: 'separatemeans' Estimates: Coefficients: [3x4 table] Covariance: [4x4 table]

Specify Within-Subject Hypothesis
Load the sample data.
load('longitudinalData.mat');
The matrix Y
contains response data for 16 individuals. The response is the blood level of a drug measured at five time points (time = 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8). Each row of Y
corresponds to an individual, and each column corresponds to a time point. The first eight subjects are female, and the second eight subjects are male. This data is simulated.
Define a variable that stores gender information.
Gender = ["F" "F" "F" "F" "F" "F" "F" "F" "M" "M" "M" "M" "M" "M" "M" "M"]';
Store the data in a table array format to conduct repeated measures analysis.
t = table(Gender,Y(:,1),Y(:,2),Y(:,3),Y(:,4),Y(:,5),... VariableNames=["Gender","t0","t2","t4","t6","t8"]);
Define the within-subject variable.
Time = [0 2 4 6 8]';
Fit a repeated measures model, where blood levels are the responses and gender is the predictor variable. Also, define the hypothesis for within-subject factors.
rm = fitrm(t,"t0-t8 ~ Gender",WithinDesign=Time,WithinModel="orthogonalcontrasts")
rm = RepeatedMeasuresModel with properties: Between Subjects: BetweenDesign: [16x6 table] ResponseNames: {'t0' 't2' 't4' 't6' 't8'} BetweenFactorNames: {'Gender'} BetweenModel: '1 + Gender' Within Subjects: WithinDesign: [5x1 table] WithinFactorNames: {'Time'} WithinModel: 'orthogonalcontrasts' Estimates: Coefficients: [2x5 table] Covariance: [5x5 table]
Fit Model with Covariates
Load the sample data.
load repeatedmeas
The table between
includes the eight repeated measurements y1
through y8
as responses, and the between-subject factors Group
, Gender
, IQ
, and Age
. IQ
and Age
are continuous variables. The table within
includes the within-subject factors w1
and w2
.
Fit a repeated measures model, where age, IQ, group, and gender are the predictor variables, and the model includes the interaction effect of group and gender. Also, define the within-subject factors.

Input Arguments
t
— Input data
table
Input data, which includes the values of the response variables and the between-subject factors to use as predictors in the repeated measures model, specified as a table.
The variable names in t
must be valid MATLAB® identifiers. You can verify the variable names by using the
isvarname
function. If
the variable names are not valid, then you can convert them by using the matlab.lang.makeValidName
function.
Data Types: table
modelspec
— Formula for model specification
character vector or string scalar of the form 'y1-yk ~
terms'
Formula for the model specification, specified as a character vector or string scalar of the
form 'y1-yk ~ terms'
. The responses and terms are
specified using Wilkinson
notation. fitrm
treats the variables used in
model terms as categorical if they are categorical (nominal or ordinal),
logical, character arrays, string arrays, or cell arrays of character
vectors. The software uses dummy variables with effects coding to represent
categorical variables. For more information about dummy variables, see Dummy Variables for more information.
For example, if you have four repeated measures as responses
and the factors x1
, x2
, and x3
as
the predictor variables, then you can define a repeated measures model
as follows.
Example: 'y1-y4 ~ x1 + x2 * x3'
Name-Value Arguments
Specify optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where Name
is
the argument name and Value
is the corresponding value.
Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the
pairs does not matter.
Before R2021a, use commas to separate each name and value, and enclose
Name
in quotes.
Example: WithinDesign="W",WithinModel="w1+w2"
specifies the matrix
w
as the design matrix for within-subject factors, and the
model for the within-subject factors w1
and w2
as "w1+w2"
.
WithinDesign
— Design for within-subject factors
numeric vector of length r (default) | r-by-k numeric matrix | r-by-k table
Design for the within-subject factors, specified as one of the following:
Numeric vector of length r, where r is the number of repeated measures for the single within-subject factor.
In this case,
fitrm
treats the values in the vector as continuous. These values are typically time values.r-by-k numeric matrix of the values of the k within-subject factors.
In this case,
fitrm
treats all k variables as continuous. Each row ofWithinDesign
corresponds to a different combination of values for the k within-subject factors.r-by-k table that contains the values of the k within-subject factors.
In this case, each row of
WithinDesign
corresponds to a different combination of values for the k within-subject factors.fitrm
treats all numeric variables as continuous, and all categorical (nominal or ordinal) variables as categorical. The software uses dummy variables with effects coding to represent categorical variables. For more information about dummy variables, see Dummy Variables for more information.
For example, if the table weeks
contains
the values of the within-subject factors, then you can define the
design table as follows.
Example: WithinDesign=weeks
Data Types: single
| double
| table
WithinModel
— Model specifying within-subject hypothesis test
'separatemeans'
(default) | 'orthogonalcontrasts'
| character vector or string scalar
Model specifying the within-subject hypothesis test, specified as one of the following:
'separatemeans'
— Compute a separate mean for each group.'orthogonalcontrasts'
— This value is valid only when the within-subject model has a single numeric factor T. Responses are the average, the slope of centered T, and, in general, all orthogonal contrasts for a polynomial up to T^(p – 1), where p is the number of rows in the within-subject model.A character vector or string scalar that defines a model specification in the within-subject factors. You can define the model based on the rules for the
terms
inmodelspec
.
For example, if you have three within-subject factors w1
,
w2
, and w3
, then you can
specify a model for the within-subject factors as follows.
Example: WithinModel="w1+w2+w2*w3"
Data Types: char
| string

Model Specification Using Wilkinson Notation
Wilkinson notation describes the factors present in models. It does not describe the multipliers (coefficients) of those factors.
The following rules specify the responses in modelspec
.

term using -1
