logLik.reStruct: Calculate reStruct Log-Likelihood

Description

Calculates the log-likelihood, or restricted log-likelihood, of the Gaussian linear mixed-effects model represented by object and conLin (assuming spherical within-group covariance structure), evaluated at coef(object). The settings attribute of object determines whether the log-likelihood, or the restricted log-likelihood, is to be calculated. The computational methods are described in Bates and Pinheiro (1998).

Usage

## S3 method for class 'reStruct':
logLik(object, conLin, \dots)

Arguments

Value

the log-likelihood, or restricted log-likelihood, of linear mixed-effects model represented by object and conLin, evaluated at coef{object}.
