Analog to `coef()` for mixed effects models #484

Open bwiernik opened 3 years ago

bwiernik commented 3 years ago

It would be nice to have an analog to coef() for mixed effects models. This returns fixef() + ranef() for each random parameter. Modeling packages vary in whether SEs and intervals are provided for these results (e.g., brms does, glmmTMB hopes to, lme4 won't).

We could return those probably using the effects and component arguments, what would you suggest?

bwiernik commented 3 years ago

I think effects = "group_specific" would be good.

DominiqueMakowski commented 3 years ago

"group_level" ?

bwiernik commented 3 years ago

"Level" usually means the specific levels of the group factor though, and there's some confusion with the group_level argument. See also this response https://twitter.com/smartin2018/status/1390738366056960003?s=21
