pargen function

Generating random parameters for averaging responses

Generates a random set of parameters that follows an averaging rule.

pargen(lev, s.range = c(0,20), w.range = exp(c(-5,5)),
        I0 = FALSE, t.par = FALSE, digits = 2)

Arguments

• lev: Numeric vector. Number of levels of each factor.
• s.range: Numeric vector. Range of variability of the s-parameters.
• w.range: Numeric vector. Range of variability of the w-parameters.
• I0: Logical. If set to FALSE, parameter s0 and w0 are set to zero. If set TRUE initial parameters are free to be estimated.
• t.par: Specifies if the weight parameters should be the 't' instead the 'w'.
• digits: Numeric. Decimal rounding of the parameters.

Returns

Vector contaning the random-generated parameters in the order s0,w0,s(k,i),w(k,i).
