vcov.brmsfit: Covariance and Correlation Matrix of Population-Level Effects

Description

Get a point estimate of the covariance or correlation matrix of population-level parameters

Usage

"vcov"(object, correlation = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

object
An object of class brmsfit
correlation
logical; if FALSE (the default), compute the covariance matrix, if TRUE, compute the correlation matrix
...
Currently ignored

Value

covariance or correlation matrix of population-level parameters

Details

Estimates are obtained by calculating the maximum likelihood covariances (correlations) of the posterior samples.
