get_ddf_Lb: Adjusted denomintor degress freedom for linear estimate for...

In myaseen208/pbkrtest: Parametric Bootstrap and Kenward Roger Based Methods for Mixed Model Comparison

Description

Get adjusted denomintor degress freedom for testing Lb=0 in a linear mixed model where L is a restriction matrix.

Usage

get_Lb_ddf(object, L)

## S3 method for class 'lmerMod'
get_Lb_ddf(object, L)

Lb_ddf(L, V0, Vadj)

get_ddf_Lb(object, Lcoef)

## S3 method for class 'lmerMod'
get_ddf_Lb(object, Lcoef)

ddf_Lb(VVa, Lcoef, VV0 = VVa)

Arguments

object	A linear mixed model object.
L	A vector with the same length as fixef(object) or a matrix with the same number of columns as the length of fixef(object)
V0, Vadj	Unadjusted and adjusted covariance matrix for the fixed effects parameters. Undjusted covariance matrix is obtained with vcov() and adjusted with vcovAdj().
Lcoef	Linear contrast matrix
VVa	Adjusted covariance matrix
VV0	Unadjusted covariance matrix

Value

Adjusted degrees of freedom (adjusment made by a Kenward-Roger approximation).
