The self-leverage \(A_{ii}\) of each observation in the robust,
random-effect-whitened convolution that the estimator uses internally
-- the robust analogue of the linear mixed-model hat value. It
reduces to the classical lmer leverage at the
non-robust limit (rho = cPsi); at the robust default the
effective degrees of freedom \(\sum_i A_{ii}\) differ as
downweighting changes each observation's pull. With groups set,
the per-observation leverages are summed within each cluster, giving
the cluster's leverage (its effective-df contribution).
# S3 method for rlmerMod
hatvalues(model, groups = NULL, ...)Named numeric vector: one entry per observation
(groups = NULL) or per cluster level.
An rlmerMod object.
Leverage aggregation: NULL (default) for
per-observation; TRUE for the top-level grouping factor; or a
factor / grouping-factor name to aggregate over.
