logLik

settings
attribute of
object
determines whether the log-likelihood, or
the restricted log-likelihood, is to be calculated. The computational
methods for the (restricted) log-likelihood calculations are described
in Bates and Pinheiro (1998).

), and
"logLik"
, corresponding to the log-likelihood of the
underlying model.
