Arguments

times

(numeric) Observation times.

mu_formula

(formula) One-sided formula for subject-level covariate effects on the subject intercept.

slope_mu_formula

(formula) One-sided formula for subject-level covariate effects on the mean slope.

slope_sigma_formula

(formula) One-sided formula for subject-level covariate effects on the slope standard deviation.

mu_parametrization

(character) Parametrization of the subject intercept predictor.

slope_mu_parametrization

(character) Parametrization of the mean slope predictor.

slope_sigma_parametrization

(character) Parametrization of the slope standard deviation predictor. Only "exponential" and "log-linear" are supported.

mu_intercept

(numeric) Intercept for the subject intercept predictor.

mu_coefficients

(numeric) Covariate coefficients for the subject intercept predictor.

slope_mu_intercept

(numeric) Intercept for the mean slope predictor.

slope_mu_coefficients

(numeric) Covariate coefficients for the mean slope predictor.

slope_sigma_intercept

(numeric) Intercept for the slope standard deviation predictor.

slope_sigma_coefficients

(numeric) Covariate coefficients for the slope standard deviation predictor.

sigma

(numeric) Observation-error standard deviation.

(numeric) Coefficient for the DSLD association link.

(numeric) Coefficient for the identity association link.

scaled_variance

(logical) Whether to use multiplicative observation error.

Value

A SimLongitudinalRandomSlopeCov object.
