Salamander mating data
Data from a salamander mating experiment discussed by McCullagh and Nelder (1989, Ch. 14). Twenty males and twenty females from two populations (Rough Butt and Whiteside) were each paired with 6 individuals from their own or from the other population. The experiments were later published by Arnold et al. (1996).

The data frame includes 360 observations on the following variables:
Index of the female;
Index of the male;
Whether the pair successfully mated or not;
Population of origin of female;
Population of origin of male;
Interaction term between TypeF
and TypeM
;
A factor with levels Summer
and Fall
;
Index of experiment
The data frame was borrowed from the HGLMMM
package (Molas and Lesaffre, 2011), version 0.1.2.
