sigma |
an optional numeric value used as a multiplier for the
standard deviations. The default is |

an optional integer value specifying the number of digits
used to represent correlation estimates. Default is |

a matrix with the estimated variances, standard deviations, and
correlations for the random effects. The first two columns, named
Variance and StdDev, give, respectively, the variance
and the standard deviations. If there are correlation components in
the random effects model, the third column, named Corr,
and the remaining unnamed columns give the estimated correlations
among random effects within the same level of grouping. The
within-group error variance and standard deviation are included as
the last row in the matrix.
