na.detail.response function

Detailed Response Variable Information

Detailed Response Variable Information

This function is called by certain na.action functions if options(na.detail.response=TRUE) is set. By default, this function returns a matrix of counts of non-NAs and the mean of the response variable computed separately by whether or not each predictor is NA. The default action uses the last column of a Surv object, in effect computing the proportion of events. Other summary functions may be specified by using options(na.fun.response="name of function").

na.detail.response(mf)

Arguments

  • mf: a model frame

Returns

a matrix, with rows representing the different statistics that are computed for the response, and columns representing the different subsets for each predictor (NA and non-NA value subsets).
