cmatbd {Boptbd} | R Documentation |
Computes the treatment information matrix
Description
The function cmatbd
computes the information matrix (C-matrix) for treatment effects under either the linear fixed effects model or the linear mixed effects model setting for a given block design of size 2.
Usage
cmatbd(trt.N, blk.N, theta, des)
Arguments
trt.N |
integer, specifying number of treatments, |
blk.N |
integer, specifying number of blocks, |
theta |
numeric, representing function of the ratio of random block variance and random error variance. It takes any value between 0 and 1, inclusive. |
des |
matrix, a |
Value
Returns a v x v
treatment information matrix (C-matrix).
