Linear Model with AIC or BIC selection, and with the contrasts sum (the sum of the coefficients is 0) if any categorical variables

Description

Linear Model with AIC or BIC selection, and with the contrasts sum (the sum of the coefficients is 0) if any categorical variables
Test for all the coefficients
Handle missing values

Usage

LinearModel(formula, data, na.action = na.omit, type = c("III","II", 3, 2), 
       selection=c("none","aic","bic"), ...)

Arguments

formula	the formula for the model 'y~x1+x2+x1:x2'
data	a data-frame
na.action	(where relevant) information returned by model.frame on the special handling of NAs.
type	type of test, "III", "II", 3 or 2. Roman numerals are equivalent to the corresponding Arabic numerals.
selection	a string that defines the model selection according to "BIC" for Bayesian Information Criterion or "AIC" for Akaike Information Criterion; "none", by defaut, means that there is no selection.
...	other arguments, cf the function lm

Details

The Anova function of the package car is used to calculate the F-tests.

The t-tests are obtained using the contrasts "contr.sum" which means that 'sum to zero contrasts'.

A stepwise procedure (using both backword and forward selections) is performed to select a model if selection="AIC" or selection="BIC".

Value

The outouts

Ftest	a table with the F-tests
Ttest	a table with the t-tests
lmResult	the summary of the function lm
call	the matched call
lmResultComp	the summary of the lm function for the complete model (given only if a selection is performed)
callComp	the matched call for the complete model (given only if a selection is performed)

Examples

## Example two-way anova
data(senso)
res <- LinearModel(Score~ Product + Day , data=senso, selection="none")
res
## Perform means comparison
meansComp(res,~Product)

## Example two-way anova with interaction
data(senso)
res2 <- LinearModel(Score~ Product + Day + Product : Day, data=senso, selection="none")
res2
meansComp(res,~Product:Day)

## Example two-way anova with selection
data(senso)
res2 <- LinearModel(Score~ Product + Day + Product : Day, data=senso, selection="BIC")
res2

## Example ancova
data(footsize)
res3 <- LinearModel(footsize ~ size + sex + size : sex, data=footsize)
res3
