compute the mean and stddev of your covariate, subtract the mean from each covariate, and then divide the result by stddev.

Hi Greve
Thanks for your reply, can I have more detail about how to solve my problem. By the way, I may not think it's the problem about covariates.
Thank you. Jin

Try normalizing your covariates (ie, subtract the mean and divide by the stddev). On 9/28/16 3:07 PM, kinson li wrote:Hi there, Anyone can help me out?
