reg.coeffs: Calculate true variables regression coefficients

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References Examples

Description

reg.coeffs calculates back regression coefficients for true variables (experimental groups) from dummy variables regression coefficients.

Usage

1
2
reg.coeffs(coefficients, indepen = groups.vector[nchar(groups.vector)==min(nchar(groups.vector))][1], groups.vector, 
    group) 

Arguments

coefficients

vector of regression coefficients obtained from a regression model with dummy variables

indepen

idependent variable of the regression formula

groups.vector

vector indicating the true variable of each variable in coefficients

group

true variable for which regression coefficients are to be computed

Details

regression coefficients in coefficients vector should be ordered by polynomial degree in a regression formula, ie: intercept, $x$ term, $x^2$ term, $x^3$ term, and so on...

Value

reg.coeff

vector of calculated regression coefficients
