model_frame: Make model frames for panel_data objects

In panelr: Regression Models and Utilities for Repeated Measures and Panel Data

Make model frames for panel_data objects

Description

This is similar to model.frame, but is designed specifically for panel_data() data frames. It's a workhorse in wbm() but may be useful in scripting use as well.

Usage

model_frame(formula, data)

Arguments

formula	A formula. Note that to get an individual-level mean with incomplete data (e.g., panel attrition), you should use imean() rather than mean().
data	A panel_data() frame.

Value

A panel_data() frame with only the columns needed to fit a model as described by the formula.

Examples

data("WageData")
wages <- panel_data(WageData, id = id, wave = t)
model_frame(lwage ~ wks + exp, data = wages)
