build_formula {tern.mmrm}

Building Model Formula

Description

This builds the model formula which is used inside fit_mmrm() and provided to mmrm::mmrm() internally. It can be instructive to look at the resulting formula directly sometimes.

Usage

build_formula(
  vars,
  cor_struct = c("unstructured", "toeplitz", "heterogeneous toeplitz", "ante-dependence",
    "heterogeneous ante-dependence", "auto-regressive", "heterogeneous auto-regressive",
    "compound symmetry", "heterogeneous compound symmetry")
)

Arguments

vars

(list)
variables to use in the model.

cor_struct

(string)
specify the covariance structure to use.

Value

Formula to use in mmrm::mmrm().

Examples

vars <- list(
  response = "AVAL", covariates = c("RACE", "SEX"),
  id = "USUBJID", arm = "ARMCD", visit = "AVISIT"
)
build_formula(vars, "auto-regressive")
build_formula(vars)
