Dear all,

I'm using the lrm function from the package "Design", and I want to
extract the p-values from the results of that function. Given an lrm
object constructed as follows :

fit <- lrm(Y~(X1+X2+X3+X4+X5+X6+X7)^2, data=dataset)

That link could create a montrous interpretation problem.



I need the p-values for the coefficients printed by calling "fit".

fit$coef (gives a list of only the coefficients)
fit$pval, fit$p, fit$pvalue, fit$p.value,... : nothing works
str(fit) : no hints there
fit[1,4] : gives dimension errors

If you want to see how Harrell does it, you can work through the code that you get from:

print.lrm

The last element in the "stats" list is (1 - pchisq(z^2, 1), 4) ) where z was defined as

z <- cof/sqrt(vv)

... and those were obtained further up as:

vv <- diag(x$var)
    cof <- x$coef

So you could try seeing if this is satisfying:

vv <- diag(fit$var) ;
cof <- fit$coef ;
z <- cof/sqrt(vv) ;
1 - pchisq(z^2, 1)

help files don't seem to give me a function that extracts them. Yet,
they are calculated and printed, based on the Wald statistics. So they
must be reachable.

Anybody knows how?

Thank you in advance
Kind regards
Joris
