Method function to perform sequential likelihood ratio tests for Negative Binomial generalized linear models.
# S3 method for negbin
anova(object, ..., test = "Chisq")Fitted model object of class "negbin", inheriting from
classes "glm" and "lm", specifying a Negative Binomial
fitted GLM. Typically the output of glm.nb().
Zero or more additional fitted model objects of class "negbin". They
should form a nested sequence of models, but need not be specified in any
particular order.
Argument to match the test argument of anova.glm.
Ignored (with a warning if changed) if a sequence of two or more
Negative Binomial fitted model objects is specified, but possibly
used if only one object is specified.
This function is a method for the generic function
anova() for class "negbin".
It can be invoked by calling anova(x) for an
object x of the appropriate class, or directly by
calling anova.negbin(x) regardless of the
class of the object.
