stat_ma_eq: Equation, p-value, R^2 of major axis regression

Description

stat_ma_eq fits model II regressions. From the fitted model it generates several labels including the equation, p-value, coefficient of determination (R^2), and number of observations.

Usage

  mapping = NULL,
  data = NULL,
  geom = "text_npc",
  position = "identity",
  ...,

  range.x = NULL,
  nperm = 99,
  eq.with.lhs = TRUE,
  eq.x.rhs = NULL,
  small.r = FALSE,
  small.p = FALSE,
  coef.digits = 3,
  coef.keep.zeros = TRUE,
  rr.digits = 2,
  f.digits = 3,
  p.digits = 3,
  label.x = "left",
  label.y = "top",
  hstep = 0,
  vstep = NULL,
  output.type = NULL,
  na.rm = FALSE,
  orientation = NA,
  parse = NULL,
  show.legend = FALSE,
  inherit.aes = TRUE
)

Arguments

mapping

The aesthetic mapping, usually constructed with aes. Only needs to be set at the layer level if you are overriding the plot defaults.

data

A layer specific dataset, only needed if you want to override the plot defaults.

geom

The geometric object to use display the data

position

The position adjustment to use for overlapping points on this layer

...

other arguments passed on to layer. This can include aesthetics whose values you want to set, not map. See layer for more details.

method

character "MA", "SMA" , "RMA" and "OLS".

formula

a formula object. Using aesthetic names x and y instead of original variable names.

range.y, range.x

character Pass "relative" or "interval" if method "RMA" is to be computed.

nperm

integer Number of permutation used to estimate significance.

eq.with.lhs

If character the string is pasted to the front of the equation label before parsing or a logical (see note).

eq.x.rhs

character this string will be used as replacement for "x" in the model equation when generating the label before parsing it.

small.r, small.p

logical Flags to switch use of lower case r and p for coefficient of determination and p-value.

coef.digits, f.digits

integer Number of significant digits to use for the fitted coefficients and F-value.

coef.keep.zeros

logical Keep or drop trailing zeros when formatting the fitted coefficients and F-value.

rr.digits, p.digits

integer Number of digits after the decimal point to use for R^2 and P-value in labels.

label.x, label.y

numeric with range 0..1 "normalized parent coordinates" (npc units) or character if using geom_text_npc() or geom_label_npc(). If using geom_text() or geom_label() numeric in native data units. If too short they will be recycled.

hstep, vstep

numeric in npc units, the horizontal and vertical step used between labels for different groups.

output.type

character One of "expression", "LaTeX", "text", "markdown" or "numeric".

na.rm

a logical indicating whether NA values should be stripped before the computation proceeds.

orientation

character Either "x" or "y" controlling the default for formula.

parse

logical Passed to the geom. If TRUE, the labels will be parsed into expressions and displayed as described in ?plotmath. Default is TRUE if output.type = "expression" and FALSE otherwise.

show.legend

logical. Should this layer be included in the legends? NA, the default, includes if any aesthetics are mapped. FALSE never includes, and TRUE always includes.

inherit.aes

If FALSE, overrides the default aesthetics, rather than combining with them. This is most useful for helper functions that define both data and aesthetics and shouldn't inherit behaviour from the default plot specification, e.g. borders.

Aesthetics

stat_ma_eq understands x and y, to be referenced in the formula while the weight aesthetic is ignored. Both x and y must be mapped to numeric variables. In addition, the aesthetics understood by the geom ("text" is the default) are understood and grouping respected.

Computed variables

If output.type different from "numeric" the returned tibble contains columns listed below. If the fitted model does not contain a given value, the label is set to character(0L).

x,npcx

x position

y,npcy

y position

eq.label

equation for the fitted polynomial as a character string to be parsed

rr.label

\(R^2\) of the fitted model as a character string to be parsed

p.value.label

P-value for the F-value above.

n.label

Number of observations used in the fit.

grp.label

Set according to mapping in aes.

r.squared, p.value, n

numeric values, from the model fit object

If output.type is "numeric" the returned tibble contains columns listed below. If the model fit function used does not return a value, the variable is set to NA_real_.

x,npcx

x position

y,npcy

y position

coef.ls

list containing the "coefficients" matrix from the summary of the fit object

r.squared, adj.r.squared, f.value, f.df1, f.df2, p.value, AIC, BIC, n

numeric values, from the model fit object

grp.label

Set according to mapping in aes.

b_0.constant

TRUE is polynomial is forced through the origin

b_i

One or two columns with the coefficient estimates

To explore the computed values returned for a given input we suggest the use of geom_debug as shown in the last examples below.

Details

This stat can be used to automatically annotate a plot with R^2, P_value, n and/or the fitted model equation. It supports linear major axis (MA), standard major axis (SMA) and ranged major axis (RMA) regression by means of function lmodel2. Please see the documentation, including the vignette of package 'lmodel2' for details. The parameters in stat_ma_eq() follow the same naming as in function lmodel2().

A ggplot statistic receives as data a data frame that is not the one passed as argument by the user, but instead a data frame with the variables mapped to aesthetics. stat_ma_eq() mimics how stat_smooth() works, except that only linear regression can be fitted. Similarly to these statistics the model fits respect grouping, so the scales used for x and y should both be continuous scales rather than discrete.

See Also

This stat_ma_eq statistic can return ready formatted labels depending on the argument passed to output.type. If other than linear major axis regression is desired, then stat_poly_eq or stat_quant_eq should be used instead of stat_ma_eq. For other types of models such as non-linear models, statistics stat_fit_glance and stat_fit_tidy should be used and the code for construction of character strings from numeric values and their mapping to aesthetic label needs to be explicitly supplied in the call.
