ram: RAM Matrix for a Structural-Equation Model

Description

Print the labelled RAM definition matrix for a structural-equation model fit by sem.

Usage

ram(object, digits=5, startvalues=FALSE)

Arguments

object

an object of class sem returned by the sem function.

digits

number of digits for printed output.

startvalues

if TRUE, start values for parameters are printed; otherwise, the parameter estimates are printed; the default is FALSE.

Value

• A data frame containing the labelled RAM definition matrix, which is normally just printed.
