pseudoR2: Pseudo R-squared

Pseudo R-squared

Description

Regression coefficient to evaluate goodness-of-fit in a given model when ordinary least squares (OLS) are not available. The algorithm computes estimates from the maximum likelihood through an iterative process. These estimates are called 'pseudo R-squared' because they look like 'R-squared' in the sense that they are on a similar scale (from 0 to 1), with higher values indicating better model fit.

Usage

pseudoR2(object, ...)

## Default S3 method:
pseudoR2(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'pltree'
pseudoR2(object, newdata = NULL, ...)

## S3 method for class 'bttree'
pseudoR2(object, ...)

Arguments

object	a model object of class glm, gnm, lm, pltree or bttree
...	additional arguments affecting the R-squared produced
newdata	a data.set with testing data

Value

A data frame containing the pseudo R-squared coefficients:

logLik	log-likelihood
logLikNull	Null log-likelihood
MaxLik	maximum likelihood pseudo R-squared
CraggUhler	Cragg and Uhler's pseudo R-squared
McFadden	McFadden pseudo R-squared
