Extract Contour Probabilities
Function to extract estimated contour probabilities of a particular effect estimated with
P-splines using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation techniques. Note that, the contour
probability option must be specified within function sx
, see the example.
cprob(object, model = NULL, term = NULL, ...)
object |
an object of class |
model |
for which model the contour probabilities should be provided, either an integer or a
character, e.g. |
term |
if not |

not used. |
