Hi,

I am using AIC values to select optimal fixed effects structures using the
package MuMIn in combination with glmmADMB.

Is there any equivalent option to 'ML' that I should be selection (i.e. not
'REML') before I do my model selection procedure, or is this okay as is in
glmmadmb.

My usual model formula and options look like this:


mod1 <- glmmadmb(MP ~ Burnt*Habitat + date2 + Time + altitude + Wind +
(1|Full_code), data = birds, family = "poisson", zeroInflation = F, verbose
= T)

AIC(mod1)

Many thanks,
