[R] Random slopes in lmer

[Darin A. England]

coef(mod1)$bird will give you a matrix with two columns. The first
column is the intercept for each bird and the second column is the
slope for each bird.

ranef(mod1) will also give you a matrix of two columns. These
represent the random effects. That is, how much the intercept (or
slope) is shifted from overall mean.

HTH,
Darin
