R Documentation

Print a summary.pdMat Object

Description

The standard deviations and correlations associated with the positive-definite matrix represented by object (considered as a variance-covariance matrix) are printed, together with the formula and the grouping level associated object, if any are present.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'summary.pdMat':
print(x, sigma, rdig, Level, resid, ...)

Arguments

`x`	an object inheriting from class `summary.pdMat`, generally resulting from applying `summary` to an object inheriting from class `pdMat`.
`sigma`	an optional numeric value used as a multiplier for the square-root factor of the positive-definite matrix represented by `object` (usually the estimated within-group standard deviation from a mixed-effects model). Defaults to 1.
`rdig`	an optional integer value with the number of significant digits to be used in printing correlations. Defaults to 3.
`Level`	an optional character string with a description of the grouping level associated with `object` (generally corresponding to levels of grouping in a mixed-effects model). Defaults to NULL.
`resid`	an optional logical value. If `TRUE` an extra row with the `"residual"` standard deviation given in `sigma` will be included in the output. Defaults to `FALSE`.
`...`	optional arguments passed to `print.default`; see the documentation on that method function.

Examples

pd1 <- pdCompSymm(3 * diag(2) + 1, form = ~age + age^2,
         data = Orthodont)
print(summary(pd1), sigma = 1.2, resid = TRUE)
