buildmer

Use buildmer to fit mixed-effects models using lmer/glmer from lme4

Description

Use buildmer to fit mixed-effects models using lmer/glmer from lme4

Usage

buildmer(
  formula,
  data = NULL,
  family = gaussian(),
  buildmerControl = buildmerControl(),
  ...
)

Arguments

`formula`	See the general documentation under `buildmer-package`
`data`	See the general documentation under `buildmer-package`
`family`	See the general documentation under `buildmer-package`
`buildmerControl`	Control arguments for buildmer — see the general documentation under `buildmerControl`
`...`	Additional options to be passed to `lmer`, `glmer`, or `gamm4`. (They will also be passed to `(g)lm` in so far as they're applicable, so you can use arguments like `subset=...` and expect things to work. The single exception is the `control` argument, which is assumed to be meant only for `lme4` and not for `(g)lm`, and will not be passed on to `(g)lm`). For backward-compatibility reasons, will also accept buildmer control parameters, although those specified in `buildmerControl` will take precedence.

Examples

library(buildmer)
model <- buildmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days|Subject),lme4::sleepstudy)

# Tests from github issue #2, that also show the use of the 'direction' and 'crit' parameters:
bm.test <- buildmer(cbind(incidence,size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
	family=binomial,data=lme4::cbpp)
bm.test <- buildmer(cbind(incidence,size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
	family=binomial,data=lme4::cbpp,buildmerControl=buildmerControl(direction='forward'))
bm.test <- buildmer(cbind(incidence,size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
	family=binomial,data=lme4::cbpp,buildmerControl=buildmerControl(crit='AIC'))
bm.test <- buildmer(cbind(incidence,size - incidence) ~ period + (1 | herd),
	family=binomial,data=lme4::cbpp,
	buildmerControl=buildmerControl(direction='forward',crit='AIC'))
