[R] help_transformation

[Indermaur Lukas]

heya,
i am fitting linear mixed effect model to a response Y. Y shows an s-shaped distribution when using QQ-plots (some zero values and some very high values). hence, which transformation should i apply that Y follows a normal distribution? any r-function/package available to do this?
 
thanks for any hint,
regards,
lukas
