summaryMA {cAIC4}

Summary of model averaged linear mixed models

Description

summaryMA is a function used to produce result summaries of the model averaging approach.

Usage

summaryMA(object, randeff = FALSE)

Arguments

object

A object created by the model averaging function.

randeff

logical. Indicator whether the model averaged random effects should also be part of the output. The default setting is FALSE.

Value
