Extract gls Residuals

Description

The residuals for the linear model represented by object are extracted.

Usage

residuals(object, type)

Arguments

object an object inheriting from class gls, representing a generalized least squares fitted linear model.
type an optional character string specifying the type of residuals to be used. If "response", the "raw" residuals (observed - fitted) are used; else, if "pearson", the standardized residuals (raw residuals divided by the corresponding standard errors) are used; else, if "normalized", the normalized residuals (standardized residuals pre-multiplied by the inverse square-root factor of the estimated error correlation matrix) are used. Partial matching of arguments is used, so only the first character needs to be provided. Defaults to "pearson".

Value

a vector with the residuals for the linear model represented by object.
