Dear list,
Could anyone tell me what is the scale of the variance components
(tempL.x parameters) in the mcmc output from glmmadmb (version 0.7.7)?
From previous posts it seems that they are supposed to be log of the
standard deviation in the random effects distribution, but I don't get
any negative values (I expect variance <1) so I guess that has changed.
Are they variances or standard deviations? I presume the
variances/standard deviations are on the scale of the linear predictor.
Cheers,
Torbjørn Ergon
