  <dc:title>Tools for Dyadic Multilevel Models</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package dyadMLM version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides tools for dyadic multilevel modeling with linear and
    generalized linear mixed-effects models. It validates and prepares
    long-format cross-sectional and intensive longitudinal data, including
    ecological momentary assessment designs, for distinguishable and
    exchangeable dyads. It also supports datasets containing multiple observed
    dyad compositions. It constructs composition-aware,
    model-ready variables for Actor-Partner Interdependence Models (APIMs),
    Dyadic Score Models (DSMs), and Dyad-Individual Models (DIMs). Prepared data
    can be used with model engines such as 'glmmTMB' and 'brms' for Gaussian and
    non-Gaussian outcomes, including counts, proportions, and skewed continuous
    responses. Post-estimation tools compare compatible fitted models and
    back-transform exchangeable sum-and-difference random-effect covariance
    structures into member-level quantities. The APIM and DSM specifications
    and their relationships follow Iida et al. (2018)
