View source: R/lmer.R

Description

Coercing an lme4::lmer model-object (of class 'lmerMod') to a model-object of class 'lmerModLmerTest' involves computing the covariance matrix of the variance parameters and the gradient (Jacobian) of cov(beta) with respect to the variance parameters.

Usage

1
as_lmerModLmerTest(model, tol = 1e-08)

Arguments

model

and lmer model-object (of class 'lmerMod') – the result of a call to lme4::lmer()

tol

tolerance for determining of eigenvalues are negative, zero or positive

Value

an object of class 'lmerModLmerTest' which sets the following slots:

vcov_varpar

the asymptotic covariance matrix of the variance parameters (theta, sigma).

Jac_list

list of Jacobian matrices; gradients of vcov(beta) with respect to the variance parameters.

vcov_beta

the asymptotic covariance matrix of the fixed-effect regression parameters (beta; vcov(beta)).

sigma

the residual standard deviation.
