R Documentation

Specify a multi-response sampling distribution

Description

This function can be used in the family argument of create_sampler or generate_data to specify a multi-response sampling distribution. The current implementation requires the data to be in long format, disregarding the possibility that observations may be on the same units.

Usage

f_multi(fam.list, fam.ind)

Arguments

`fam.list`	a named list of response types.
`fam.ind`	a formula specifying a character or factor variable indicating which observations are of each response type specified in `fam.list`.
