Auxiliary function as user interface for ergmm
prior
specification. Typically only used when calling ergmm
. It is
used to supply the parameters of the prior distribution of the model, to
overwrite those specified in the model formula, and to supply miscellaneous
prior parameters.
ergmm.prior(..., adjust.beta.var = TRUE)
A list with the arguments as elements.
Prior distribution parameters. See term documentation and ergmm()
for more
information.
A shortcut: whether the prior variance for each
covariate coefficient should be divided by the mean square of that
covariate. This adjustment affects those variances specified in the formula
or by default, but not those specified through the prior=
argument.
