Hi all,
According to the documentation, in confint.merMod() you can use the "parm" parameter to get confidence intervals for only a specified subset of parameters by indicating the integer positions of the desired parameters. But how is one supposed to know which integer positions correspond with which parameters? I poked around a little but found nothing in the methods or slots of the merMod object that indicates this, and nothing in the documentation detailing this. Have I missed something? I guess you can call the function leaving that argument at its default, and the order of the parameters in that output will correspond with the integer positions, but this approach would seem to defeat the point of being able to specify particular subsets of parameters...
