dfbetas.estex {influence.ME} | R Documentation |
DFBETAS (standardized difference of the beta) is a measure that standardizes the absolute difference in parameter estimates between a (mixed effects) regression model based on a full set of data, and a model from which a (potentially influential) subset of data is removed. A value for DFBETAS is calculated for each parameter in the model separately. This function computes the DFBETAS based on the information returned by the influence() function.
## S3 method for class 'estex'
dfbetas(model, parameters = 0, sort=FALSE, to.sort=NA, abs=FALSE, ...)
model |
An object as returned by the influence() function, containing the altered estimates of a mixed effects regression model |
parameters |
Used to define a selection of parameters. If parameters=0 (default), DFBETAS is calculated for all parameters in the model |
sort |
If |
to.sort |
Specify on which variable the DFBETAS must be sorted. If only one variable present (either in the model, or due to the selection specified in |
abs |
If |
... |
Currently not used |
A matrix is returned, containing DFBETAS-values for each (selected) fixed parameter of the model, and separately for each evaluated set of influential data.
