mkMerMod function

Create a 'merMod' Object

Create an object of (a subclass of) class merMod

from the environment of the objective function and the value returned by the optimizer.

mkMerMod(rho, opt, reTrms, fr, mc, lme4conv = NULL)

Arguments

• rho: the environment of the objective function
• opt: the optimization result returned by the optimizer (a list: see lmerControl for required elements)
• reTrms: random effects structure from the calling function (see mkReTrms for required elements)
• fr: model frame (see model.frame)
• mc: matched call from the calling function
• lme4conv: lme4-specific convergence information (results of checkConv)

Returns

an object from a class that inherits from merMod.
