LMMsolver (version 1.0.12)

deviance.LMMsolve: Deviance of an LMMsolve object

Description

Obtain the deviance of a model fitted using LMMsolve.

Usage

# S3 method for LMMsolve
deviance(object, relative = TRUE, includeConstant = TRUE, ...)

Value

The deviance of the fitted model.

Arguments

object

an object of class LMMsolve

relative

Deviance relative conditional or absolute unconditional (-2*logLik(object))? Default relative = TRUE.

includeConstant

Should the constant in the restricted log-likelihood be included. Default is TRUE, as for example in lme4 and SAS. In asreml the constant is omitted.

...

some methods for this generic require additional arguments. None are used in this method.

Examples

## Fit model on oats.data
data(oats.data)

## Fit simple model with only fixed effects.
LMM1 <- LMMsolve(fixed = yield ~ rep + gen,
                data = oats.data)

## Obtain deviance.
deviance(LMM1)
