PROC MIXED Statements

Enter SAS PROC MIXED statements in this field to override default parameters for the model.

You can specify any PROC MIXED statement except for the PROC, BY, or RUN statements.

PROC MIXED statements are written in the following syntax:

Statement var1...varn;

where:

Statement is the PROC MIXED statement,
var1...varn are the variables (or specific values) specified,
italicized items indicate a variable, or option to be specified,
items within the angle brackets are optional,
each element in the statement is delimited by a space,
the statement ends with a semicolon (;), and
each PROC MIXED statement is written on a separate line in the field.

Note: Variables specified here can come from either the adsl.sas7bdat or ae.sas7bdat data sets.

Examples of commonly used PROC MIXED statements are listed in the following table.

Statement

Definition

Syntax

CLASS

names the classification variables to be used in the model

CLASS var1...varn;

MODEL

names a single dependent variable and the fixed effects that determine the X matrix of the model

MODEL Response = <fixed effects>;

Note: In the Mixed Model Analysis analytical procedure, the data file and the EDDS are combined into a stacked SAS data set where all of the probe intensity values are combined into a single column that is named Response by default. Your PROC MIXED Model statement must use this variable name, as shown above.

RANDOM

used to specify one or more variables classification or continuous random coefficients

RANDOM random effects;

LSMEANS

computes the least square means for the fixed effects

LSMEANS fixed effects;

REPEATED

specifies the R matrix in the model

REPEATED <repeated effect>;

ESTIMATE

constructs custom scalar estimates for confidence limits

ESTIMATE ‘label’<fixed effect values> <|random effect values>;
