romr.fnc: Exclude outliers.

In LMERConvenienceFunctions: Model Selection and Post-Hoc Analysis for (G)LMER Models

Description

Exclude outliers with a standardized residual at a distance greater than 2.5 standard deviations from 0. Note that this function cannot be used with generalized linear mixed-effects models (glmers).

Usage

romr.fnc(model, data, trim = 2.5)

Arguments

model	A mer object (fitted by function lmer). Note that this function cannot be used with generalized linear mixed-effects models (glmers).
data	The data frame on which the mer object was fitted.
trim	Threshold at which residuals will be removed. Defaults to 2.5 (standard deviations above and below the residuals mean).

Value

The function returns the following objects:

data	The data with outliers removed.
data0	The original data prior to removing the outliers.
n.removed	The number of data points removed.
percent.removed	The percentage of removed data points.
