coef.modTempEff {modTempEff}R Documentation

Extract DL coefficients from a ‘modTempEff’ object

Description

The function extracts the estimated coefficients of the DL curves for cold and/or heat effect.

Usage

coef.modTempEff(object, which = c("cold", "heat"), L, ...)

Arguments

object the "modTempEff" object returned by tempeff.
which which DL curve should be returned?
L the number of DL coefficients required. `L+1' coefficients for lags 0 to L are returned.
... additional arguments (ignored).

Details

The resulting estimates, returned as a matrix, are DL coefficients for the cold and/or the heat effect. Each coefficient at specific lag represents the log relative risk (of mortality) for one-unit increase in cold (or heat) values.

Value

A matrix with DL coefficients. Each row corresponds to a specific lag.
