mkSimulationTemplate: Make templates suitable for guiding mixed model simulations

In lme4: Linear Mixed-Effects Models using 'Eigen' and S4

Make templates suitable for guiding mixed model simulations

Description

Make data and parameter templates suitable for guiding mixed model simulations, by specifying a model formula and other information (EXPERIMENTAL). Most useful for simulating balanced designs and for getting started on unbalanced simulations.

Usage

mkParsTemplate(formula, data)
mkDataTemplate(formula, data, nGrps = 2, nPerGrp = 1, rfunc = NULL, ...)

Arguments

formula	A mixed model formula (see lmer).
data	A data frame containing the names in formula.
nGrps	Number of levels of a grouping factor.
nPerGrp	Number of observations per level.
rfunc	Function for generating covariate data (e.g. rnorm.
...	Additional parameters for rfunc.

These functions are designed to be used with simulate.merMod.
