The function summary.nparcomp produces a result summary of nparcomp. It
can only be applied to objects of class "nparcomp".
Usage
## S3 method for class 'nparcomp'
summary(object,...)
Arguments
object
An object of class "nparcomp", i.e. the result when
applying nparcomp to a dataset. Otherwise an
error will occur.
...
Arguments to be passed to methods.
Details
Since summary.nparcomp is a S3 method it suffices to use summary(x) as long as x is of
class "nparcomp". It will be interpreted as summary.nparcomp(x).
Value
The function produces a summary of the result of nparcomp starting
with some global information: alternative hypothesis, estimation method, type of
contrast, confidence level, method, interpretation. This is followed by:
Data.Info
List of samples and sample sizes.
Contrast
Contrast matrix.
Analysis
Comparison: relative contrast effect ,
relative.effect: estimated relative contrast effect,
Estimator: Estimated relative contrast effect,
Lower: Lower limit of the simultaneous confidence interval,
Upper: Upper limit of the simultaneous confidence interval,
Statistic: Teststatistic
p.Value: Adjusted p-values for the hypothesis by the choosen approximation method.
Overall
Overall p-value and critical value.
Note
It is possible to create a graphical result of the nonparametric test procedure nparcomp
by using the function plot.nparcomp.
