PermTest: Permutation Test

Description

The function performs a permuatation test with Deviance as test statistic.

Usage

PermTest(xx, formula.full, D.full, D.red, model.dat, glm.family, perm, 
	test.vars, cf, adjust, snowfall.args, snowfall.seed, 
	save.stat.data, file.save, use.save.stat.data, file.use)

Arguments

xx

Dataset (variables x patients).

formula.full

Formula from the full model.

D.full

Designmatrix of the full model.

Designmatrix of the reduced model.

model.dat

Dataset with covariables.

glm.family

Family for the regression.

perm

Number of permutations.

test.vars

Value

A list with

statistic
