plot.multicomp: Multiple comparisons plot that gives independent user control over the appearance of the significant and not significant comparisons.

Description

Multiple comparisons plot that gives independent user control over the appearance of the significant and not significant comparisons. In R, both plot.multicomp plot.multicomp.hh coerce their argument to an "glht" object and plots that with the appropriate plot method. In R, plot.multicomp.adjusted replaces the bounds calculated by multcomp:::confint.glht with bounds that In S-Plus, plot.multicomp.hh augments the standard plot.multicomp to give additional user arguments to control the appearance of the plot. plotMatchMMC uses the plot.multicomp.hh code. plotMatchMMC must immediately follow a plot of an mmc.multicomp object and is applied to either the $mca or $lmat component of the mmc.multicomp object. plotMatchMMC is used as a tiebreaker plot for the MMC plot. plotMatchMMC matches the horizontal scaling of the MMC plot and displays the individual contrasts in the same order as the MMC plot. See mmc for examples.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'multicomp':
plot(x, ...) ## R only
## S3 method for class 'multicomp.hh':
plot(x, ylabel = x$ylabel, href = 0, uniform = TRUE,
           plt.in = c(0.2, 0.9, 0.1, 0.9),
           x.label.adj=1,
           xrange.include=href,
           xlim,
           comparisons.per.page=21,
           col.signif=1, col.not.signif=1,
           lty.signif=4, lty.not.signif=4,
           lwd.signif=1, lwd.not.signif=1,
           ...,
           xlabel.print=TRUE, y.axis.side=2, ylabel.inside=FALSE)
plotMatchMMC(x, ...,
             xlabel.print=FALSE,
             cex.axis=par()$cex.axis,
             col.signif='red', main="",
             ylabel.inside=FALSE,
             y.axis.side=4,
             adjusted=FALSE)

Arguments

x

A "multicomp" object. plotMatchMMC will also accept a mmc.multicomp object. It will use the lmat component if there is one, otherwise it will use the mca component.

ylabel

Y label on graph.

y.axis.side

Y labels are on the left by default when plotting a "multicomp" object. We move them to the right when matching the x-axis of an MMC plot.

...

other arguments to plot.multicomp.

ylabel.inside

Logical value, if FALSE (the default), the plotMatchMMC right-axis labels are in the margin. If TRUE, the right-axis labels are in the figure area. Setting the argument to TRUE makes sen

href

reference line for the intervals. The default is 0. S-Plus only.

xrange.include

xlim will be extended to include these values. S-Plus only.

uniform

S-Plus only. Logical value, if TRUE and the plots fill more than one page, the scale will be uniform across pages.

plt.in

S-Plus only. Value for par("plt") to make better use of the space on the plotting page.

x.label.adj

S-Plus only. This is the par("adj") applied to the x-location of the y.labels on the multicomp plot.

xlim

x-range of the plot.

comparisons.per.page

The default S-Plus plot.multicomp hardwires this to 21, which allows for all pairwise comparisons of 7 levels taken 2 at a time. The HH plot.multicomp makes it a variable. Use it together with plt.in

lty.signif, lwd.signif

Line type, and line width for significant comparisons. S-Plus only.

col.signif

Color for significant comparisons. S-Plus only for plot.multicomp. Both R and S-Plus for plotMatchMMC.

col.not.signif, lty.not.signif, lwd.not.signif

Color, line type, and line width for non-significant comparisons. S-Plus only.

xlabel.print

logical. When TRUE, the caption under the plot is printed. When FALSE, the caption under the plot is not printed. It is helpful to set this to FALSE when the multicomp plot is used as

cex.axis

cex for axis ticklabels.

main

Main title for plot.

adjusted

Logical. When TRUE, HH:::plot.multicomp.adjusted is used to replace the standard confidence bounds calculated by multcomp:::confint.glht, with bounds calculated by as.multicomp.glht w

Value

• plot.multicomp plots a "multicomp" object. In S-Plus, this masks the standard plot.multicomp in order to provide additional arguments for controlling the appearance. It defaults to the standard appearance. In R, it coerces its argument to a "glht" object and plots that with the appropriate plot method.
