This method calculates the Coefficient of Discrimination D (also known as Tjur's R2; Tjur, 2009) for generalized linear (mixed) models for binary outcomes. It is an alternative to other pseudo-R2 values like Nagelkerke's R2 or Cox-Snell R2. The Coefficient of Discrimination D can be read like any other (pseudo-)R2 value.

Usage

r2_tjur(model, ...)

Arguments

model

Binomial Model.

...

Arguments from other functions, usually only used internally.

Value

A named vector with the R2 value.
