multi_sample_htest: Calculates multi sample hypothesis tests

Description

Calculates multi sample hypothesis tests depending on the class of its input.

Usage

multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

# S3 method for logical multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

# S3 method for factor multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

# S3 method for character multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

# S3 method for ordered multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

# S3 method for numeric multi_sample_htest(value, group, ...)

Arguments

value

An atomic vector.

group

A factor, same length as value.

...

Passed to methods.

Value

A named list with length > 0.

Most hypothesis-test-functions in R like t.test or chisq.test return an object of class 'htest'. 'htest'-objects are a suitable output for function two_sample_htest. Function check_tests checks if the output is suitable for further processing.

Methods (by class)

  • logical: Casts to factor and then calls method multi_sample_htest again.

  • factor: Calls chisq.test.

  • character: Casts value to factor and then calls method multi_sample_htest again.

  • ordered: Calls kruskal.test.

  • numeric: Calls multi_sample_htest's method on ordered(value).

Details

Calculates multi sample hypothesis tests depending on the class of its input.

Results are passed to function format_tests for the final table.

If you are not pleased with the current hypothesis tests you may alter these functions. But you must keep the original output-format, see section Value. Function check_tests checks if the output of statistics is suitable for further processing.

The function multi_sample_htest is essentially a wrapper to standardize the arguments of various hypothesis test functions.
