Methods for function anova

Description

Computes an analysis deviance table for two nested fitted model objects of class cold.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'cold'
anova(object, ...)

Arguments

object

an object of class cold.

...

an object of class cold.

Warning

The comparison between two models by anova will only be valid if they are fitted to the same dataset.

Methods

signature(object = "ANY"):

Generic function.

signature(object="cold"):

Anova for cold object.

Note

It uses the naive solution of Pinheiro et al. (2000) to calculate the p-value when the difference between the models is the number of random effects.

Examples

#####  data = seizure

seiz1 <- cold(y ~ lage + lbase + v4 + trt + trt:lbase, data = seizure, 
start = NULL, dependence = "AR1")

seiz2 <-cold(y ~ lage + lbase + v4 + trt, data = seizure, start = NULL, 
dependence = "AR1")

anova(seiz1, seiz2)

#####  data = datacold

mod0 <- cold(z ~ Time * Treatment, data = datacold, time = "Time", 
id = "Subject", dependence = "ind")

mod0R <- cold(z  ~ Time * Treatment, random = ~ 1, data = datacold, 
time = "Time", id = "Subject", dependence = "indR")
summary(mod0R)

anova(mod0, mod0R)
