I tried to run a bivariate regression. I want to examine the association between level of education (IV) with views on immigration (DV). The DV is an interval level variable and the IV a dummy variable. I label the regression as reg. The code is as follows:

>reg <-lm(immig.view~edu.degree.level,df1)
>Error in model.frame.default(formula = immig.view ~ edu.degree.level,  : 
variable lengths differ (found for 'edu.degree.level')

I'm completely stuck. Thanks for your help!

    can you dput(head(df1,10)) and paste the output as part of your post? then others can reproduce the error and suggest where the problem lies – StupidWolf Apr 07 '20 at 21:11

    Likely one of the variables in your formula is a column of `df1` and the other is a separate vector with different length. – Karolis Koncevičius Apr 07 '20 at 21:12
  • @KarolisKoncevičius exactly this! Many thanks! – Honey Badger Apr 08 '20 at 08:08

    @StupidWolf I started over and now the model runs. Many thanks for the suggestion (and also showing me a new command) as I will do this going forward (this was my first post). – Honey Badger Apr 08 '20 at 08:09
