dot-simulate_outcome: Simulate the Outcome Variable

In PowRPriori: Power Analysis via Data Simulation for (Generalized) Linear Mixed Effects Models

Simulate the Outcome Variable

Description

An internal helper function that takes a complete design matrix and simulates the dependent variable based on the specified fixed and random effects.

Usage

.simulate_outcome(
  design_df,
  formula,
  fixed_effects,
  sds_random,
  family = "gaussian"
)

Arguments

design_df	The data frame from .create_design_matrix.
formula	The model formula.
fixed_effects	A list of the fixed effects coefficients.
sds_random	A list of the random effects' standard deviations and correlations.
family	A string indicating the model family.

Value

The input design_df with an added column for the outcome variable.
