se.coef: Extract Standard Errors of Model Coefficients

Description

These functions extract standard errors of model coefficients from objects returned by modeling functions.

Usage

se.coef (object, …)
se.fixef (object)
se.ranef (object)

# S4 method for lm se.coef(object) # S4 method for glm se.coef(object) # S4 method for merMod se.coef(object)

Arguments

object

object of lm, glm and merMod fit

other arguments

Value

se.coef gives lists of standard errors for coef, se.fixef gives a vector of standard errors for fixef and se.ranef gives a list of standard errors for ranef.

Details

se.coef extracts standard errors from objects returned by modeling functions. se.fixef extracts standard errors of the fixed effects from objects returned by lmer and glmer functions. se.ranef extracts standard errors of the random effects from objects returned by lmer and glmer functions.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
# Here's a simple example of a model of the form, y = a + bx + error,
# with 10 observations in each of 10 groups, and with both the
# intercept and the slope varying by group.  First we set up the model and data.

   group <- rep(1:10, rep(10,10))
   mu.a <- 0
   sigma.a <- 2
   mu.b <- 3
   sigma.b <- 4
   rho <- 0
   Sigma.ab <- array (c(sigma.a^2, rho*sigma.a*sigma.b,
                    rho*sigma.a*sigma.b, sigma.b^2), c(2,2))
   sigma.y <- 1
   ab <- mvrnorm (10, c(mu.a,mu.b), Sigma.ab)
   a <- ab[,1]
   b <- ab[,2]
#
   x <- rnorm (100)
   y1 <- rnorm (100, a[group] + b[group]*x, sigma.y)
   y2 <- rbinom(100, 1, prob=invlogit(a[group] + b*x))

#  lm fit
   M1 <- lm (y1 ~ x)
   se.coef (M1)

#  glm fit
   M2 <- glm (y2 ~ x)
