Plots results from factorial experiments. Estimated marginal means and error bars are plotted in the foreground, raw data is plotted in the background. Error bars can be based on different standard errors (e.g., model-based, within-subjects, between-subjects). Functions described here return a ggplot2 plot object, thus allowing further customization of the plot.
afex_plot is the user friendly function that does data preparation
and plotting. It also allows to only return the prepared data (return
= "data").
interaction_plot does the plotting when a trace factor is
present. oneway_plot does the plotting when a trace factor is
absent.

currently ignored.
A character vector or one-sided formula specifying the
factor names of the predictors displayed on the x-axis. mapping
specifies further mappings for these factors if trace is missing.
An optional character vector or one-sided formula
specifying the factor names of the predictors connected by the same line.
mapping specifies further mappings for these factors.
An optional character vector or one-sided formula
specifying the factor names of the predictors shown in different panels.
A character vector specifying which aesthetic mappings
should be applied to either the trace factors (if trace is
specified) or the x factors. Useful options are any combination of
"shape", "color", "linetype", or also "fill"
(see examples). The default (i.e., missing) uses c("shape",
"linetype") if trace is specified and "" otherwise (i.e., no
additional aesthetic). If specific mappings should not be applied to
specific graphical elements, one can override those via the corresponding
further arguments. For example, for data_arg the default is
list(color = "darkgrey") which prevents that "color" is
mapped onto points in the background.
A scalar character vector specifying on which standard
error the error bars should be based. Default is "model", which
plots model-based standard errors. Further options are: "none" (or
NULL), "mean", "within" (or "CMO"), and
"between". See details.
Logical. Should error bars plot confidence intervals
(=TRUE, the default) or standard errors (=FALSE)?
Numeric value between 0 and 1 determing the width of the confidence interval. Default is .95 corresponding to a 95% confidence interval.
A list of further arguments passed to
geom_errorbar, which draws the errorsbars. Default
is list(width = 0) which suppresses the vertical bars at the end of
the error bar.
logical. Should raw data be plotted in the
background? Default is TRUE.
Geom function or list of geom functions used
for plotting data in background. The default (missing) uses
geom_point if trace is specified, otherwise
geom_beeswarm (a good alternative in case of many
data points is ggbeeswarm::geom_quasirandom) . See examples fo
further options.
numeric alpha value between 0 and 1 passed to
data_geom. Default is 0.5 which correspond to semitransparent
data points in the background such that overlapping data points are plotted
darker. If NULL it is not passed to data_geom, and can be set
via data_arg.
color that should be used for the data in the background.
Default is "darkgrey". If NULL it is not passed to
data_geom, and can be set via data_arg. Ignored if
"color" or "colour" in mapping.
A list of further arguments passed to
data_geom. Can also be a list of lists, in case
data_geom is a list of multiple geoms, which allows having
separate argument lists per data_geom.
A list of further arguments passed to
geom_point or geom_line which
draw the points and lines in the foreground. Default is list().
line_arg is only used if trace is specified.
A list of further arguments passed to
emmeans. Of particular importance for ANOVAs is
model, see afex_aov-methods.
Numerical amount of dodging of factor-levels on x-axis. Default
is 0.5.
A scalar character specifying what should be returned.
The default "plot" returns the ggplot2 plot. The other option
"data" returns a list with two data.frames containing the
data used for plotting: means contains the means and standard errors
for the foreground, data contains the raw data in the background.
A list of new factor levels that should be used
in the plot. The name of each list entry needs to correspond to one of the
factors in the plot. Each list element can optionally be a named character
vector where the name corresponds to the old factor level and the value to
the new factor level. Named vectors allow two things: (1) updating only a
subset of factor levels (if only a subset of levels is specified) and (2)
reordering (and renaming) the factor levels, as order of names within a
list element are the order that will be used for plotting. If specified,
emits a message with old -> new factor levels.
A ggplot2 geom (or a list of geoms) that will be
added to the returned plot as a first element (i.e., before any of the
other graphical elements). Useful for adding reference lines or similar
(e.g., using geom_hline).
A scalar character vector with a new title for the
legend.
An optional character vector specifying over which variables
the raw data should be aggregated. Only relevant for mixed,
merMod, and default method. The default (missing) uses all
random effects grouping factors (for mixed and merMod method)
or assumes all data points are independent. This can lead to many data
points. error = "within" or error = "between" require that
id is of length 1. See examples.
An optional scalar character vector giving the name of the
column containing the dependent variable for the afex_plot.default
method. If missing, the function attempts to take it from the call
slot of object. This is also used as y-axis label.
For the afex_plot.default method, an optional
data.frame containing the raw data used for fitting the model and
which will be used as basis for the data points in the background. If
missing, it will be attempted to obtain it from the model via
recover_data. For the plotting functions, a
data.frame with the data that has to be passed and contains the
background data points.
For the afex_plot.default method, an
optional character vector specifying which variables should be
treated as within-subjects (or repeated-measures) factors and which as
between-subjects (or independent-samples) factors. If one of the two
arguments is given, all other factors are assumed to fall into the other
category.
data.frames used for plotting of the plotting
functions.
logical. Should error bars be plotted? Only used in
plotting functions. To suppress plotting of error bars use error =
"none" in afex_plot.
A scalar character string
specifying the name of the corresponding column containing the information
used for plotting. Each column needs to exist in both the means and
the data data.frame.
A scalar character string specifying the
name of the columns containing lower and upper bounds for the error bars.
These columns need to exist in means.
afex_plot obtains the estimated marginal means via
emmeans and aggregates the raw data to the same
level. It then calculates the desired confidence interval or standard error
(see below) and passes the prepared data to one of the two plotting
functions: interaction_plot when trace is specified and
oneway_plot otherwise.
Error bars provide a grahical representation of the
variability of the estimated means and should be routinely added to results
figures. However, there exist several possibilities which particular
measure of variability to use. Because of this, any figure depicting error
bars should be accompanied by a note detailing which measure the error bars
shows. The present functions allow plotting of different types of
confidence intervals (if error_ci = TRUE, the default) or standard
errors (if error_ci = FALSE).
A further complication is that readers routinely misinterpret confidence intervals. The most common error is to assume that non-overlapping error bars indicate a significant difference (e.g., Belia et al., 2005). This is often too strong an assumption. (see e.g., Cumming & Finch, 2005; Knol et al., 2011; Schenker & Gentleman, 2005). For example, in a fully between-subjects design in which the error bars depict 95% confidence intervals and groups are of approximately equal size and have equal variance, even error bars that overlap by as much as 50% still correspond to p < .05. Error bars that are just touching roughly correspond to p = .01.
In the case of designs involving repeated-measures factors the usual confidence intervals or standard errors (i.e., model-based confidence intervals or intervals based on the standard error of the mean) cannot be used to gauge significant differences as this requires knowledge about the correlation between measures. One popular alternative in the psychological literature are intervals based on within-subjects standard errors/confidence intervals (e.g., Cousineau & O'Brien, 2014). These attempt to control for the correlation across individuals and thereby allow judging differences between repeated-measures condition. As a downside, when using within-subjects intervals no comparisons across between-subjects conditions or with respect to a fixed-value are possible anymore.
In the case of a mixed-design, no single type of error bar is possible that
allows comparison across all conditions. Likewise, for mixed models
involving multiple crossed random effects, no single set of error
bars (or even data aggregation) adequately represent the true varibility in
the data and adequately allows for "inference by eye". Therefore, special
care is necessary in such cases. One possiblity is to avoid error bars
altogether and plot only the raw data in the background (with error =
"none"). The raw data in the background still provides a visual impression
of the variability in the data and the precision of the mean estimate, but
does not as easily suggest an incorrect inferences. Another possibility is
to use the model-based standard error and note in the figure caption that
it does not permit comparisons across repeated-measures factors.
The following "rules of eye" (Cumming and Finch, 2005) hold, when permitted by design (i.e., within-subjects bars for within-subjects comparisons; other variants for between-subjects comparisons), and groups are approximately equal in size and variance. Note that for more complex designs ususally analyzed with mixed models, such as designs involving complicated dependencies across data points, these rules of thumbs may be highly misleading.
p < .05 when the overlap of the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) is no more than about half the average margin of error, that is, when proportion overlap is about .50 or less.
p < .01 when the two CIs do not overlap, that is, when proportion overlap is about 0 or there is a positive gap.
p < .05 when the gap between standard error (SE) bars is at least about the size of the average SE, that is, when the proportion gap is about 1 or greater.
p < .01 when the proportion gap between SE bars is about 2 or more.
The following lists the
implemented approaches to calculate confidence intervals (CIs) and standard
errors (SEs). CIs are based on the SEs using the t-distribution with
degrees of freedom based on the cell or group size. For ANOVA models,
afex_plot attempts to warn in case the chosen approach is misleading
given the design (e.g., model-based error bars for purely
within-subjects plots). For mixed models, no such warnings are
produced, but users should be aware that all options beside "model"
are not actually appropriate and have only heuristic value. But then again,
"model" based error bars do not permit comparisons for factors
varying within one of the random-effects grouping factors (i.e., factors
for which random-slopes should be estimated).
"model"Uses model-based CIs and SEs. For ANOVAs, the
variant based on the lm or mlm model (i.e.,
emmeans_arg = list(model = "multivariate")) seems generally
preferrable.
"mean"Calculates the standard error of the mean for each cell ignoring any repeated-measures factors.
"within" or "CMO"Calculates within-subjects SEs using the Cosineau-Morey-O'Brien (Cousineau & O'Brien, 2014) method. This method is based on a double normalization of the data. SEs and CIs are then calculated independently for each cell (i.e., if the desired output contains between-subjects factors, SEs are calculated for each cell including the between-subjects factors).
"between"First aggregates the data per participant and then calculates the SEs for each between-subjects condition. Results in one SE and t-quantile for all conditions in purely within-subjects designs.
"none" or NULLSuppresses calculation of SEs and plots no error bars.
For mixed models, the within-subjects/repeated-measures factors are
relative to the chosen id effects grouping factor. They are
automatically detected based on the random-slopes of the random-effects
grouping factor in id. All other factors are treated as
independent-samples or between-subjects factors.
