GHYC: Gosho-Hamada-Yoshimura's Criterion for Generalized Estimating...

In glmtoolbox: Set of Tools to Data Analysis using Generalized Linear Models

Gosho-Hamada-Yoshimura's Criterion for Generalized Estimating Equations

Description

Computes the Gosho-Hamada-Yoshimura's criterion (GHYC) for one or more objects of the class glmgee.

Usage

GHYC(..., verbose = TRUE, digits = 3)

Arguments

...	one or several objects of the class glmgee.
verbose	an (optional) logical switch indicating if should the report of results be printed. By default, verbose is set to be TRUE.
digits	an (optional) integer indicating the number of digits to print.

Value

A data.frame with the values of the GHYC for each glmgee object in the input.

Examples

###### Example 1: Effect of ozone-enriched atmosphere on growth of sitka spruces
data(spruces)
mod1 <- size ~ poly(days,4) + treat
fit1 <- glmgee(mod1, id=tree, family=Gamma(log), data=spruces)
fit2 <- update(fit1, corstr="AR-M-dependent")
fit3 <- update(fit1, corstr="Stationary-M-dependent(2)")
fit4 <- update(fit1, corstr="Exchangeable")
GHYC(fit1, fit2, fit3, fit4)

###### Example 2: Treatment for severe postnatal depression
data(depression)
mod2 <- depressd ~ visit + group
fit1 <- glmgee(mod2, id=subj, family=binomial(logit), data=depression)
fit2 <- update(fit1, corstr="AR-M-dependent")
fit3 <- update(fit1, corstr="Stationary-M-dependent(2)")
fit4 <- update(fit1, corstr="Exchangeable")
GHYC(fit1, fit2, fit3, fit4)

###### Example 3: Treatment for severe postnatal depression (2)
mod3 <- dep ~ visit*group
fit1 <- glmgee(mod3, id=subj, family=gaussian(identity), data=depression)
fit2 <- update(fit1, corstr="AR-M-dependent")
fit3 <- update(fit1, corstr="Exchangeable")
GHYC(fit1, fit2, fit3)
