## Arguments

data Dataframe (or tibble) from which variables are to be taken. Grouping variables. Arguments passed on to lme4::glmer formulaa two-sided linear formula object describing both the fixed-effects and random-effects part of the model, with the response on the left of a ~ operator and the terms, separated by + operators, on the right. Random-effects terms are distinguished by vertical bars ("|") separating expressions for design matrices from grouping factors. familya GLM family, see glm and family. starta named list of starting values for the parameters in the model, or a numeric vector. A numeric start argument will be used as the starting value of theta. If start is a list, the theta element (a numeric vector) is used as the starting value for the first optimization step (default=1 for diagonal elements and 0 for off-diagonal elements of the lower Cholesky factor); the fitted value of theta from the first step, plus start[["fixef"]], are used as starting values for the second optimization step. If start has both fixef and theta elements, the first optimization step is skipped. For more details or finer control of optimization, see modular. verboseinteger scalar. If > 0 verbose output is generated during the optimization of the parameter estimates. If > 1 verbose output is generated during the individual penalized iteratively reweighted least squares (PIRLS) steps. nAGQinteger scalar - the number of points per axis for evaluating the adaptive Gauss-Hermite approximation to the log-likelihood. Defaults to 1, corresponding to the Laplace approximation. Values greater than 1 produce greater accuracy in the evaluation of the log-likelihood at the expense of speed. A value of zero uses a faster but less exact form of parameter estimation for GLMMs by optimizing the random effects and the fixed-effects coefficients in the penalized iteratively reweighted least squares step. (See Details.) subsetan optional expression indicating the subset of the rows of data that should be used in the fit. This can be a logical vector, or a numeric vector indicating which observation numbers are to be included, or a character vector of the row names to be included. All observations are included by default. weightsan optional vector of ‘prior weights’ to be used in the fitting process. Should be NULL or a numeric vector. na.actiona function that indicates what should happen when the data contain NAs. The default action (na.omit, inherited from the ‘factory fresh’ value of getOption("na.action")) strips any observations with any missing values in any variables. offsetthis can be used to specify an a priori known component to be included in the linear predictor during fitting. This should be NULL or a numeric vector of length equal to the number of cases. One or more offset terms can be included in the formula instead or as well, and if more than one is specified their sum is used. See model.offset. contrastsan optional list. See the contrasts.arg of model.matrix.default. mustartoptional starting values on the scale of the conditional mean, as in glm; see there for details. etastartoptional starting values on the scale of the unbounded predictor as in glm; see there for details. devFunOnlylogical - return only the deviance evaluation function. Note that because the deviance function operates on variables stored in its environment, it may not return exactly the same values on subsequent calls (but the results should always be within machine tolerance). A character describing what output is expected. Two possible options: "tidy" (default), which will return the results, or "glance", which will return model summaries. A list of arguments to be used in the relevant S3 method. A list of arguments to be used in the relevant S3 method.

## Value
