plotAll

R Documentation

A series of plots displaying the results of 'BEST' analysis.

Description

Displays a series of plots showing the posterior probability distributions of the parameters of interest.

Usage

plotAll(BESTobj, credMass = 0.95,
  ROPEm = NULL, ROPEsd = NULL, ROPEeff = NULL,
  compValm = 0, compValsd = NULL, compValeff = 0,
  showCurve = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

`BESTobj`	an object of class `BEST`, as produced by the function `BESTmcmc`.
`credMass`	the probability mass to include in credible intervals, or NULL to suppress plotting of the credible interval.
`ROPEm`	a two element vector, such as `c(-1, 1)`, specifying the limit of the ROPE on the difference of means (for 2 groups) or the mean (for 1 group).
`ROPEsd`	a two element vector, such as `c(-1, 1)`, specifying the limit of the ROPE on the (difference of) standard deviations.
`ROPEeff`	a two element vector, such as `c(-1, 1)`, specifying the limit of the ROPE on the effect size.
`showCurve`	logical: if TRUE, the posterior density will be represented by a kernel density function instead of a histogram.
`compValm`	a value for comparison with the (difference of) means.
`compValsd`	a value for comparison with the (difference of) standard deviations.
`compValeff`	a value for comparison with the effect size.
`...`	other graphical parameters (currently ignored).

Details

The display has a series of panels displaying the posterior distributions of each of the parameters (and differences between groups) together with summary statistics; see plotPost for details. Also a chart showing approx. 30 plots of posterior predictive distributions, together with histograms of the original data.

Value

Returns NULL invisibly. Used for the side effect.
