Montreal workshop On Monday and Tuesday this week (16 and 17 October), Doug Kelkhoff (Roche), Phil Boileau (Analysis Group) and Daniel Sabanés Bové (Roche) held another edition of the Good Software Engineering Practices for R Packages (or short...

I’m pleased to anounce an update of my sjPlot-package, a package for Data Visualization for Statistics in Social Science. Thanks to the help of Alexander, it is now possible to create grouped Likert-plots. This is what I want to show in this post… First, we load the required packages ...

The view_df() function from the sjPlot-package creates nice „codeplans“ from your data sets, and also supports labelled data and tagged NA-values. This gives you a comprehensive, yet clear overview of your data set. To demonstrate this function, we use a (labelled) data set from the European Social Survey. view_...

I’m happy to announce that version 0.8.0 of my ggeffects-package is on CRAN now. The update has fixed some bugs from the previous version and comes along with many new features or improvements. One major part that was addressed in the latest version are fixed and improvements for mixed models, ...

ggeffects (CRAN, website) is a package that computes marginal effects at the mean (MEMs) or representative values (MERs) for many different models, including mixed effects or Bayesian models. One of the advantages of the package is its easy-to-use interface: No matter if you fit a simple or complex model, with ...

Regression coefficients are typically presented as tables that are easy to understand. Sometimes, estimates are difficult to interpret. This is especially true for interaction or transformed terms (quadratic or cubic terms, polynomials, splines), in particular for more complex models. In such cases, coefficients are no longer interpretable in a direct ...

A new update of my sjstats-package just arrived at CRAN. This blog post demontrates those functions of the sjstats-package that deal especially with Bayesian models. The update contains some new and some revised functions to compute summary statistics of Bayesian models, which are now described in more detail. hdi() rope() ...

I’m pleased to announce an update of my sjstats-package. New features are specifically implemented for the Anova and Bayesian statistic and summary functions. Here’s a short overview of what’s new… Anova statistics Beside the already implemented functions to calculate eta-squared, partial eta-squared and omega-squared, it is now ...

I’m pleased to announce an update for the sjmisc-package, which was just released on CRAN. Here I want to point out two important changes in the package. New default option for recoding and transformation functions First, a small change in the code with major impact on the workflow, as ...

I’m pleased to announce the latest update from my sjPlot-package on CRAN. Beside some bug fixes and minor new features, the major update is a new function, plot_model(), which is both an enhancement and replacement of sjp.lm(), sjp.glm(), sjp.lmer(), sjp.glmer() and sjp.int(). The ...

Another quick preview of my R-packages, especially sjPlot, which now also support brmsfit-objects from the great brms-package. To demonstrate the new features, I load all my „core“-packages at once, using the strengejacke-package, which is only available from GitHub. This package simply loads four packages (sjlabelled, sjmisc, sjstats and sjPlot). ...

I’m working on the next update of my sjPlot-package, which will get a generic plot_model() method, which plots any kind of regression model, with different plot types being supported (forest plots for estimates, marginal effects and predictions, including displaying interaction terms, …). The package also supports rstan resp. rstanarm ...

Here’s a small preview of forthcoming features in the ggeffects-package, which are already available in the GitHub-version: For marginal effects from models fitted with glmmTMB() or glmer() resp. glmer.nb(), confidence intervals are now also computed. If you want to test these features, simply install the package from GitHub: ...

Some time ago I started working with Bayesian methods, using the great rstanarm-package. Beside the fantastic package-vignettes, and books like Statistical Rethinking or Doing Bayesion Data Analysis, I also found the ressources from Tristan Mahr helpful to both better understand Bayesian analysis and rstanarm. This motivated me to implement tools ...

My sjstats-package has been updated on CRAN. The past updates introduced new functions for various purposes, e.g. predictive accuracy of regression models or improved support for the marvelous glmmTMB-package. The current update, however, added some ANOVA tools to the package. In this post, I want to give a short ...

I started writing my first package as collection of various functions that I needed for (almost) daily work. Meanwhile, packages were growing and bit by bit I sourced out functions to put them into new packages. Although this means more work for CRAN members when they have more packages to ...

Aim of the ggeffects-package The aim of the ggeffects-package is similar to the broom-package: transforming “untidy” input into a tidy data frame, especially for further use with ggplot. However,… Weiterlesen "ggeffects: Create Tidy Data Frames of Marginal Effects for ‚ggplot‘ from Model Outputs #rstats"
