Mallows-Bradley-Terry Model
Description
Fits a Mallows-Bradley-Terry (MBT) model by maximum likelihood.
Usage
mbt(data, bootstrap = FALSE, nsim = 1000, ...)
Arguments
data |
a data frame, the first t columns containing the ranks, the (t + 1)th column containing the frequencies |
bootstrap |
logical. Return a parametric bootstrap p-value? |
nsim |
number of bootstrap replicates |
... |

Details
mbt
provides a front end for glm
. See Critchlow and Fligner
(1991) and Mallows (1957) for details.
Value
coefficients |
a vector of parameter estimates (scale values) constrained to sum to unity |
goodness.of.fit |
the goodness of fit statistic including the
likelihood ratio fitted vs. saturated model (-2logL), the degrees of
freedom, the p-value of the corresponding chi-square distribution, and
if |
perm.idx |
the names of the non-zero frequency ranks |
y |
the vector of rank frequencies including zeros |
