This function fits the candidate variables to the provided model,for each strata, on a control population. If the variance of the residual (the fitted observation minus the real observation) is reduced significantly, then, such residual is used in the resulting data frame. Otherwise, the control mean is subtracted to the observation.

A string of the type "1 + var1 + var2" that defines the model to which variables will be fitted
The name of the column in data that stores the variable that will be used to stratify the model
A data frame where all variables are stored in different columns
A data frame similar to data, but with only the control population
Fit type: linear fitting ("LM"), generalized least squares fitting ("GLS") or Robust ("RLM")
The maximum p-value, associated to the F-test, for the model to be allowed to reduce variability
The name of the column in data that stores the variable to be used to group the data (only needed if type defined as "GLS")
A data frame, where each input observation has been adjusted from data at each strata
