In fontikar/circus: Helper functions to wrangle animal models from 'brms'

Description

This is an example model output from an random-slope animal model ran in 'brms' using some unpublished data on body mass of lampropholis delicata collected by Fonti Kar. This model partitions variation in body mass (lnMass) into additive genetic variance, maternal variance (dam_id) as well as permanent environment variance (id). Random slopes was also estimated for maternal and permanent environment variance to model how variance changes with age (z_days_since_hatch). A genomic relatedness matrix was fitted in the model. This model was run with 4000 iterations, warmup of 1500 and thinned at every fifth sample. Note this model is demonstrative purposes only.

Usage

model_bad_3_slopes

Format

model output with class 'brmsfit', list of 19

1. liz_id: Unique identification for each lizard

2. dam_id: Unique identification for each mother

3. id: Unique identification for each lizard, fitting ID of individual twice accounts for permenant environmental variance

4. z_days_since_hatch: days since hatching, z-transformed
