[R] lmer4 and variable selection

[jebyrnes]

Have you thought about using AIC weights?  As long as you are not considering
models where you drop your random effects, calculating AIC values (or AICc
values) and doing multimodel inference is one way to approach your problem.

If you are fitting models with and without random effects, it gets trickier
- see Vaida and Blanchard 2005 Biometrika.
