Calculate Variance-Covariance Matrix for Models Fitted with Bootstrapped Parameters
Description
The variance-covariance matrix is derived from the bootstrapped parameter estimates stored in the object. It is based on Efron (1979) and calculates the result as follows:
1/(B-1) * Σ(θb - θ̅)(θb - θ̅)'
where B is the number of bootstraps and θ̅ is the mean of the bootstrapped coefficients.
Usage
## S3 method for class 'rendo.boots'
vcov(object, ...)
Arguments
object |
a fitted model object with bootstrapped parameters. Typically from |
... |
ignored, for consistency with the generic function. |
Value
A matrix of the estimated covariances between the parameter estimates of the model.
The row and column names correspond to the parameter names given by the coef
method.
