rms (version 6.8-2)

Glm: rms Version of glm

Description

This function saves rms attributes with the fit object so that anova.rms, Predict, etc. can be used just as with ols and other fits. No validate or calibrate methods exist for Glm though.

Usage

Glm(
  formula,
  family = gaussian,
  data = environment(formula),
  weights,
  subset,
  na.action = na.delete,
  start = NULL,
  offset = NULL,
  control = glm.control(...),
  model = TRUE,
  method = "glm.fit",
  x = FALSE,
  y = TRUE,
  contrasts = NULL,
  ...
)

Value

a fit object like that produced by stats::glm() but with rms attributes and a class of "rms", "Glm", "glm", and "lm". The g element of the fit object is the \(g\)-index.

Arguments

formula, family, data, weights, subset, na.action, start, offset, control, model, method, x, y, contrasts

see stats::glm(); for print x is the result of Glm

...

ignored

Details

For the print method, format of output is controlled by the user previously running options(prType="lang") where lang is "plain" (the default), "latex", or "html".

## Dobson (1990) Page 93: Randomized Controlled Trial :
counts <- c(18,17,15,20,10,20,25,13,12)
outcome <- gl(3,1,9)
treatment <- gl(3,3)
f <- glm(counts ~ outcome + treatment, family=poisson())
f
anova(f)
summary(f)
f <- Glm(counts ~ outcome + treatment, family=poisson())
# could have had rcs( ) etc. if there were continuous predictors
f
anova(f)
summary(f, outcome=c('1','2','3'), treatment=c('1','2','3'))
