    $\begingroup$ Have you approached the package maintainer(s) directly? This sounds like it is mainly a software/coding question, which would be off-topic on this site. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 10, 2022 at 18:41
  • $\begingroup$ @EdM I have not approached the package maintainer(s) directly. I will send them a link to this post now. I do believe the question falls within the purview of this site, as it concerns whether a widely-used inference tool, QIC, is correctly calculated in a popular statistical package. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 11, 2022 at 0:16
  • $\begingroup$ I agree with @BrianM. that there is a mistake there. The call model.indep <- eval(object, parent.frame()) should be model.indep <- eval(object$call, parent.frame()) in order to update the actual call and obtain the estimates from the independence model. Great catch! I'll update the function in the package now. $\endgroup$ Commented Jun 20, 2022 at 9:36
