[R] Glm poisson

[Francisco J. Zagmutt]

Why are you trying to extract the values by calling a function with the name 
of the value?  glm objects are stored as a list i.e.
str(pAmeir_1)

Hence, you can extract what you need by selecting the values on the list 
i.e.

pAmeir_1$df.null
pAmeir_1$null.deviance

Cheers

Francisco
