Description

This function provides a comparison between the characteristics of convergent replications and nonconvergent replications. The comparison includes sample size (if varying), percent missing completely at random (if varying), percent missing at random (if varying), parameter values, misspecified-parameter values (if applicable), and population misfit (if applicable).

Usage

1
summaryConverge(object, std = FALSE, improper = TRUE)

Arguments

object

SimResult object being described

std

If TRUE, the standardized parameter values are used instead of unstandardized parameter values.

improper

If TRUE, include the replications that provided improper solutions

Value

A list with the following elements:

Each element will provide the head-to-head comparison between convergent and nonconvergent replications properties.
