Pboot: Percentile Bootstrap Confidence Interval (Wild Bootstrap) -...

Description Usage Arguments Author(s) References See Also Examples

View source: R/Pboot.R

Description

This function calculates confidence intervals for the parameters in heteroskedasticity linear regression models. The intervals are estimated by bootstrap percentile.

Usage

1
2
Pboot(model, significance=0.05, double=FALSE, J=NULL, K=NULL,
      distribution="rademacher")

Arguments

model

Any object of class lm;

significance

Significance level of the test. By default, the level of significance is 0.05;

double

If double = TRUE will be calculated intervals bootstrap t and double bootstrap t. The default is double = FALSE;

J

Number of replicas of the first bootstrap;

K

Number of replicas of the second bootstrap;

distribution

Distribution of the random variable with mean zero and variance one. This random variable multiplies the error estimates in the generation of the samples. The argument distribution can be rademacher or normal (standard normal). The default is distribution = rademacher.
