<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Hello!<br>
<br>
I was wondering if anyone knows a way of transforming values obtained from a HPD of mcmc runs of a model?<br>
<br>
I am running models with a binary response variable (0/1) (family=binomial) and using individual identity as a random variable. I am currently using R 2.14.1 (64-bit) and glmmadmb v.0.7.2.5.
<br>
<br>
The intervals looks like this:<br>
<br>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; font-size: medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Console'; font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
<pre tabindex="0" class="GJWPQFQDK4" style="font-family: 'Lucida Console'; font-size: 10pt ! important; outline-style: none; border-style: none; white-space: pre-wrap ! important; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.2;"><span class="GJWPQFQDN4 ace_keyword" style="white-space: pre; color: blue;">> </span><span class="GJWPQFQDB4 ace_keyword" style="color: blue;">head(HPDinterval(m1))

beta.1 -487.3376278 -389.89072
beta.2 88.3658266 167.10142
beta.3 -106.7078281 -46.53788

beta.5 -0.8259944 50.58856
beta.6 -49.8802241 -12.91753</pre>
</span></span><br>
<div>First of all: I know that these values are from the parameters fitted internally, using an orthogonalized version of the original design matrix, not the original coefficients.<br>
<br>
The question is: (if possible) How can I transform these values to, for example, Logit? I would like to have my estimated value and its limits on the same scale at least (and hopefully a "reader friendly" scale).
<br>
<br>
Any help will be deeply appreciated!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
