[R-sig-ME] Hosmer-Lemeshow test in GLMM (binomial family) using lme4 package

[Ben Bolker]

    I think it should be appropriate.

   However, Frank Harrell (a leading biostatistician)

"The Hosmer-Lemeshow test has been obsolete for more than a decade.  Not 
recommend.  Low power, hard to interpret, very arbitrary to how deciles 
are computed."

  You can use 
https://search.r-project.org/CRAN/refmans/DescTools/html/HosmerLemeshowTest.html 
(which returns both HL and the recommned le Cessie-van 
Houwelingen-Copas-Hosmer statistics ...)

   cheers
