show_ranef | R Documentation |
show_ranef()
allows a user estimating a mixed model to quickly
plot the random intercepts (with conditional variances) of a given random effect
in a mixed model. In cases where there is a random slope over the intercept, the function
plots the random slope as another caterpillar plot (as another facet)
show_ranef(model, group, reorder = TRUE)
model |
a fitted mixed model with random intercepts |
group |
What random intercept/slopes do you want to see as a caterpillar plot? Declare it as a character |
reorder |
optional argument. DEFAULT is TRUE, which “re-orders” the intercepts by the original value in the data. If FALSE, the ensuing caterpillar plot defaults to a default method of ordering the levels of the random effect by their estimated conditional mode. |
This function is a simple wrapper in which broom.mixed
and, obviously
ggplot2
are doing the heavy lifting.
show_ranef()
returns a caterpillar plot of the random intercepts from a given
mixed model. If broom.mixed::augment()
can process it, this function should work just fine.
