Package: merTools 0.6.2

merTools: Tools for Analyzing Mixed Effect Regression Models

Provides methods for extracting results from mixed-effect model objects fit with the 'lme4' package. Allows construction of prediction intervals efficiently from large scale linear and generalized linear mixed-effects models. This method draws from the simulation framework used in the Gelman and Hill (2007) textbook: Data Analysis Using Regression and Multilevel/Hierarchical Models.
