Arguments

data

Dataframe from which variables specified are preferentially to be taken.

x

The grouping variable.

y

The response - a vector of length the number of rows of x.

grouping.var

Grouping variable.

title.prefix

Character specifying the prefix text for the fixed plot title (name of each factor level) (Default: "Group").

plot.type

Character describing the type of plot. Currently supported plots are "box" (for pure boxplots), "violin" (for pure violin plots), and "boxviolin" (for a mix of box and violin plots; default).

type

Type of statistic expected ("parametric" or "nonparametric" or "robust" or "bayes").Corresponding abbreviations are also accepted: "p" (for parametric), "np" (nonparametric), "r" (robust), or "bf"resp.

effsize.type

Type of effect size needed for parametric tests. The argument can be "biased" ("d" for Cohen's d for t-test; "partial_eta" for partial eta-squared for anova) or "unbiased" ("g" Hedge's g for t-test; "partial_omega" for partial omega-squared for anova)).

effsize.noncentral

Logical indicating whether to use non-central t-distributions for computing the 95 or Hedge's g (Default: FALSE).

bf.prior

A number between 0.5 and 2 (default 0.707), the prior width to use in calculating Bayes factors.

bf.message

Logical. Decides whether to display Bayes Factor in favor of null hypothesis for parametric test (Default: bf.message = FALSE).

xlab

Label for x axis variable.

ylab

Label for y axis variable.

caption

The text for the plot caption.

sample.size.label

Logical that decides whether sample size information should be displayed for each level of the grouping variable x (Default: TRUE).

k

Number of digits after decimal point (should be an integer) (Default: k = 3).

var.equal

a logical variable indicating whether to treat the variances in the samples as equal. If TRUE, then a simple F test for the equality of means in a one-way analysis of variance is performed. If FALSE, an approximate method of Welch (1951) is used, which generalizes the commonly known 2-sample Welch test to the case of arbitrarily many samples.

nboot

Number of bootstrap samples for computing effect size (Default: 100).

tr

Trim level for the mean when carrying out robust tests. If you get error stating "Standard error cannot be computed because of Winsorized variance of 0 (e.g., due to ties). Try to decrease the trimming level.", try to play around with the value of tr, which is by default set to 0.1. Lowering the value might help.

mean.label.size

Aesthetics for the label displaying mean. Defaults: 3, "bold","black", respectively.

mean.label.fontface

Aesthetics for the label displaying mean. Defaults: 3, "bold","black", respectively.

mean.label.color

Aesthetics for the label displaying mean. Defaults: 3, "bold","black", respectively.

notch

A logical. If FALSE (default), a standard box plot will be displayed. If TRUE, a notched box plot will be used. Notches are used to compare groups; if the notches of two boxes do not overlap, this suggests that the medians are significantly different. In a notched box plot, the notches extend 1.58 * IQR / sqrt(n). This gives a roughly 95% confidence interval for comparing medians. IQR: Inter-Quartile Range.

notchwidth

For a notched box plot, width of the notch relative to the body (default 0.5).

linetype

Character strings ("blank", "solid", "dashed", "dotted", "dotdash", "longdash", and "twodash") specifying the type of line to draw box plots (Default: "solid"). Alternatively, the numbers 0 to 6 can be used (0 for "blank", 1 for "solid", etc.).

outlier.tagging

Decides whether outliers should be tagged (Default: FALSE).

outlier.label

Label to put on the outliers that have been tagged.

outlier.label.color

Color for the label to to put on the outliers that have been tagged (Default: "black").

outlier.color

Default aesthetics for outliers (Default: "black").

outlier.coef

Coefficient for outlier detection using Tukey's method. With Tukey's method, outliers are below (1st Quartile) or above (3rd Quartile) outlier.coef times the Inter-Quartile Range (IQR) (Default: 1.5).

mean.plotting

Logical that decides whether mean is to be highlighted and its value to be displayed (Default: TRUE).

mean.ci

Logical that decides whether 95 is to be displayed (Default: FALSE).

mean.size

Point size for the data point corresponding to mean (Default: 5).

mean.color

Color for the data point corresponding to mean (Default: "darkred").

point.jitter.width

Numeric specifying the degree of jitter in x direction. Defaults to 40% of the resolution of the data.

point.jitter.height

Numeric specifying the degree of jitter in y direction. Defaults to 0.1.

point.dodge.width

Numeric specifying the amount to dodge in the x direction. Defaults to 0.60.

ggtheme

A function, ggplot2 theme name. Default value is ggplot2::theme_bw(). Any of the ggplot2 themes, or themes from extension packages are allowed (e.g., ggthemes::theme_economist(), hrbrthemes::theme_ipsum_ps(), ggthemes::theme_fivethirtyeight(), etc.).

ggstatsplot.layer

Logical that decides whether theme_ggstatsplot theme elements are to be displayed along with the selected ggtheme (Default: TRUE).

package

Name of package from which the palette is desired as string or symbol.

palette

If a character string (e.g., "Set1"), will use that named palette. If a number, will index into the list of palettes of appropriate type. Default palette is "Dark2".

direction

Either 1 or -1. If -1 the palette will be reversed.

messages

Decides whether messages references, notes, and warnings are to be displayed (Default: TRUE).

Details

For parametric tests, Welch's ANOVA/t-test are used as a default. References:

  • ANOVA: Delacre, Leys, Mora, & Lakens, PsyArXiv, 2018

  • t-test: Delacre, Lakens, & Leys, International Review of Social Psychology, 2017

If robust tests are selected, following tests are used is .

  • ANOVA: one-way ANOVA on trimmed means (see ?WRS2::t1way)

  • t-test: Yuen's test for trimmed means (see ?WRS2::yuen)

Variant of this function ggwithinstats is currently under work. You can still use this function just to prepare the plot for exploratory data analysis, but the statistical details displayed in the subtitle will be incorrect. You can remove them by adding + ggplot2::labs(subtitle = NULL).
