⚠️There's a newer version (3.1-3) of this package.Take me there.

lmerTest (version 2.0-33)

Tests in Linear Mixed Effects Models

Description

Different kinds of tests for linear mixed effects models as implemented in 'lme4' package are provided. The tests comprise types I - III F tests for fixed effects, LR tests for random effects. The package also provides the calculation of population means for fixed factors with confidence intervals and corresponding plots. Finally the backward elimination of non-significant effects is implemented.

Functions in lmerTest (2.0-33)

lmerTest-package

The package performs different kinds of tests on lmer objects, such as F tests of types I - III hypotheses for the fixed part, likelihood ratio tests for the random part, least squares means (population means) and differences of least squares means for the factors of the fixed part with corresponding plots. The package also provides with a function step, that preforms backward elimination of non-significant effects, starting from the random effects, and then fixed ones.
