Extracts the power values of dam, sire, and dam by sire variance components from a generalized linear mixed-effect model using the glmer function of the lme4 package.
powerGlmer(varcomp, nval, fam_link, alpha = 0.05, nsim = 100, poisLog = NULL)Prints a data frame with the sample sizes, variance component inputs, variance component outputs, and power values.
Vector of known dam, sire, and dam by sire variance components, i.e. c(dam, sire, dam x sire).
Vector of known dam, sire, and offspring per family sample sizes, i.e. c(dam, sire, offspring).
The family and link in family(link) format. Supported options are binomial(link="logit"), binomial(link="probit"), poisson(link="log"), and poisson(link="sqrt").
Statistical significance value. Default is 0.05.
Number of simulations. Default is 100.
The residual variance component value if using poisson(link="log").
Extracts the dam, sire, dam, and dam by sire power values. The residual variance component for the fam_links are described by Nakagawa and Schielzeth (2010, 2013). Power values are calculated by stochastically simulation data and then calculating the proportion of significance values less than alpha for each component (Bolker 2008). Significance values for the random effects are determined using likelihood ratio tests (Bolker et al. 2009).
