interpret: Interpret model output

Description

Provides simple interpretations of regression coefficients and Cronbach's alpha from assess and alpha function classes. The interpretations describe coefficients and significance values as well as modifying item scales. The interpretations are text comments associated with specific parameters of the various analyses.

Usage

interpret(object)

Value

a list with interpretations of Cronbach's alpha scales or regression model results.

Arguments

object

alpha and assess class objects: alpha, ITS, DID, linear (ols) or logistic models.

Examples

# Interpret Cronbach's alpha
interpret(alpha(items=c("i1","i2","i3","i4","i5"), data=cas))

# interpret a standard linear (OLS) regression
hos1 <- assess(formula=survey ~ program + month, data=hosprog, regression= "ols")
interpret(hos1)$model

# interpret a differences-in-differences model
hos2 <- assess(formula=survey ~ ., data=hosprog, intervention = "program",
int.time="month", treatment = 5, did="two", newdata=TRUE)
interpret(hos2)$did  #interpret(hos2) also runs, returns ITS results if present

# interpret an interrupted time series model
hos3 <- assess(formula=survey ~ ., data=hosprog, intervention = "program",
int.time="month", its="two", interrupt = 5)
interpret(hos3)$its
