lme4 (version 0.3-3)

lmeLevel: Construct an lmeLevel object

Description

Create an lmeLevel object from its components

Usage

lmeLevel(precision, groups, columns, modelMatrix)

Arguments

precision
A pdMat object representing the relative precision matrix for the random effects. This argument is missing in calls to generate the lmeLevel for the fixed-effects terms and for the response.
groups
The grouping factor. This argument is missing in calls to generate the lmeLevel for the fixed-effects terms and for the response.
columns
integer vector: the columns in modelMatrix corresponding to this level of random or fixed effects.
modelMatrix
a model matrix: the original slot of the containing reStruct object

Value

  • An lmeLevel object.

Details

An lmeLevel object contains information on one level of random-effects terms or the fixed-effects terms or the response in a linear mixed-effects structure.
