format_stats.easycorrelation: Format correlation statistics

Description

This functions formats correlation statistics generated from the {correlation} package. This detects whether the object is from a Pearson, Spearman, or Kendall correlation and reports the appropriate correlation label (r, \(\tau\), \(\rho\)). The default output is APA formatted, but numbers of digits, leading zeros, the presence of confidence intervals, and italics are all customizable.

Usage

# S3 method for easycorrelation
format_stats(
  x,
  digits = 2,
  pdigits = 3,
  pzero = FALSE,
  full = TRUE,
  italics = TRUE,
  type = "md",
  ...
)

A character string of statistical information formatted in Markdown or LaTeX.
