I'm searching for a method to add the predicted (real, not standardized) values of every single variable in my model
> model<-gam(LN_Brutto~s(agecont,by=Sex)+factor(Sex)+te(Month,Age)+s(Month,by=Sex),
data=bears)
This is the summary of my model:
> summary(m13)
Family: gaussian
Link function: identity
Formula:
LN_Brutto ~ s(agecont, by = Sex) + factor(Sex) + te(Month, Age) +
s(Month, by = Sex)
Parametric coefficients:

(Intercept) 4.32057 0.01071 403.34 <2e-16 ***
factor(Sex)m 0.27708 0.01376 20.14 <2e-16 ***

predicted values are provided by this code:

And the result looks like this:

But I guess these are just standardized predicted values and not the real values (the real ones should have no negative values!?).
So does anyone know what I have to modify in the code, to get the real values? Any idea? Thank you!
Not quite sure if I follow you correctly, but
predict(model, type = "terms")
might be the solution you're looking for.Update
I don't think these are standardised. Possibly some of the coefficients are just negative.
Consider the example from the help file
?mgcv:::predict.gam
:The results below illustrate that these are in fact the contributions that are being used for each predictor to calculate the fitted values (by calculating the sum of each of these contributions and then adding the intercept and the offset).
