_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     A generic function to extract, and optionally accumulate, the
     random effects.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     ranef(object, ...)
     ## S4 method for signature 'lmer':
     ranef(object, accumulate, ...)
     random.effects(object, ...)   # deprecated

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  object: an object of a class from which random effects estimates can
          be extracted.

accumulate: an optional logical argument indicating if the random
          effects for nested grouping factors should be accumulated.

     ...: some methods for this generic function require additional
          arguments.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     a list of matrices.

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     ranef(lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (1|Subject) + (0+Days|Subject), sleepstudy))
