extractPredictiveData: Function to extract raw data from posterior predictive model-checking distributions

Description

This function parses a data frame where it was stored the predicted data generated by the function TPmodel, and returns a list with all the predictive posterior data monitored.

Usage

extractPredictiveData(df = NULL, get = NULL, all = FALSE)

Value

a list of the data generated from a posterior predictive model-checking procedure, if all is TRUE, a vector is returned instead.

Arguments

df

data frame, variable where it was saved the output from a posterior predictive model-checking TPmodel run.

get

string, could be either "dNcPred" and "dCcPred" (for consumer data ), "dNb1Pred" and "dCb1Pred" (for baseline 1 data), or "dNb2Pred" and "dNC2Pred" (for baseline 2 data).

all

logical, if TRUE it will return a combined list of all monitored data.
