Uses lattice
graphics to plot the effect of one or two predictors
on the linear predictor or X beta scale, or on some transformation of
that scale. The first argument specifies the result of the
Predict
function. The predictor is always plotted in its
original coding. plot.Predict
uses the
xYplot
function unless formula
is omitted and the x-axis
variable is a factor, in which case it reverses the x- and y-axes and
uses the Dotplot
function.
If data
is given, a rug plot is drawn showing
the location/density of data values for the groups
(superposition) variable that generated separate
curves, the data density specific to each class of points is shown.
This assumes that the second variable was a factor variable. The rug plots
are drawn by scat1d
. When the same predictor is used on all
subdata
to specify an expression to subset according to other
criteria in addition.
To plot effects instead of estimates (e.g., treatment differences as a
function of interacting factors) see contrast.rms
and
summary.rms
.
pantext
creates a lattice
panel function for including
text such as that produced by print.anova.rms
inside a panel or
in a base graphic.

a lattice

a data frame created by Predict
, or for pantext
the x-coordinate for text
the right hand side of a lattice
formula reference variables in
data frame x
. You may not specify formula
if you varied
multiple predictors separately when calling Predict
.
Otherwise, when formula
is not given, plot.Predict
constructs one from information in x
.
an optional name of one of the variables in x
that
is to be used as a grouping (superpositioning) variable. Note that
groups
does not contain the groups data as is customary in
lattice
; it is only a single character string specifying the
name of the grouping variable.
when plotting effects of different predictors, cond
is a character string that specifies a single variable name in
x
that can be used to form panels. Only applies if using
rbind
to combine several Predict
results.
set to TRUE
if x
is the result of
passing multiple Predict
results, that represent different
predictors, to rbind.Predict
. This will cause the .set.
variable created by rbind
to be copied to the
.predictor.
variable.
a subsetting expression for restricting the rows of
x
that are used in plotting. For example, predictions may have
been requested for males and females but one wants to plot only females.
This parameter is seldom used, as limits are usually controlled with
Predict
. One reason to use xlim
is to plot a
factor
variable on the x-axis that was created with the cut2
function
with the levels.mean
option, with val.lev=TRUE
specified to plot.Predict
.
In this case you may want the axis to
have the range of the original variable values given to cut2
rather
than the range of the means within quantile groups.
Range for plotting on response variable axis. Computed by default.
Label for x
-axis. Default is one given to asis, rcs
, etc.,
which may have been the "label"
attribute of the variable.
Label for y
-axis. If fun
is not given,
default is "log Odds"
for
lrm
, "log Relative Hazard"
for cph
, name of the response
variable for ols
, TRUE
or log(TRUE)
for psm
, or "X * Beta"
otherwise.
a data frame containing the original raw data on which the
regression model were based, or at least containing the data
is present and contains the
needed variables, the original data are added to the graph in the form
of a rug plot using scat1d
.
if data
is specified, an expression to be
evaluated in the data
environment that evaluates to a logical
vector specifying which observations in data
to keep. This
will be intersected with the criterion for the groups
variable. Example: if conditioning on two paneling variables using
|a*b
you can specify
subdata=b==levels(b)[which.packet()[2]]
, where the 2
comes from the fact that b
was listed second after the
vertical bar (this assumes b
is a factor
in
data
. Another example:
subdata=sex==c('male','female')[current.row()]
.
an object returned by anova.rms
. If
anova
is specified, the overall test of association for
predictor plotted is added as text to each panel, located at the spot
at which the panel is most empty unless there is significant empty
space at the top or bottom of the panel; these areas are given preference.
specify pval=TRUE
for anova
to include not
only the test statistic but also the P-value
character size for the test statistic printed on the panel
a vector of colors used to fill confidence bands for successive superposed groups. Default is inceasingly dark gray scale.
Set to FALSE
to suppress subtitling the graph with the list of
settings of non-graphed adjustment values.
cex
parameter for size of adjustment settings in subtitles. Default is
0.75 times par("cex")
.
cex
parameter for x-axis tick labels
perim
specifies a function having two
arguments. The first is the vector of values of the first variable that
is about to be plotted on the x-axis. The second argument is the single
value of the variable representing different curves, for the current
curve being plotted. The function's returned value must be a logical
vector whose length is the same as that of the first argument, with
values TRUE
if the corresponding point should be plotted for the
current curve, FALSE
otherwise. See one of the latter examples.
If a predictor is not specified to plot
, NULL
is passed as
the second argument to perim
, although it makes little sense to
use perim
when the same perim
is used for multiple predictors.
Controls how numeric variables used for panel labels are formatted. The default is 4 significant digits.
when groups
and formula
are not specified, if any panel
variable has nlevels
or fewer values, that variable is
converted to a groups
(superpositioning) variable. Set
nlevels=0
to prevent this behavior. For other situations, a
numeric x-axis variable with nlevels
or fewer unique values
will cause a dot plot to be drawn instead of an x-y plot.
If formula
is given, you can set nlines
to
TRUE
to convert the x-axis variable to a factor and then to an
integer. Points are plotted at integer values on the x-axis but
labeled with category levels. Points are connected by lines.
an additional panel function to call along with panel
functions used for xYplot
and Dotplot
displays
a list containing named elements that specifies
parameters to scat1d
when data
is given. The
col
parameter is usually derived from other plotting
information and not specified by the user.
a value ("l","p","b"
) to override default choices
related to showing or connecting points. Especially useful for
discrete x coordinate variables.
a lattice
scale list
for the y
-axis
to be added to what is automatically generated for the x
-axis.
Example:
yscale=list(at=c(.005,.01,.05),labels=format(c(.005,.01,.05)))
.
See xyplot
a function that operates on the scale
object
created by plot.Predict
to produce a modified scale
object that is passed to the lattice graphics function. This is
useful for adding other scales
options or for changing the
x
-axis limits for one predictor.
extra arguments to pass to xYplot
or Dotplot
. Some
useful ones are label.curves
and abline
.
Set label.curves
to FALSE
to suppress labeling of
separate curves. Default is TRUE
, which
causes labcurve
to be invoked to place labels at positions where the
curves are most separated, labeling each curve with the full curve label.
Set label.curves
to a list
to specify options to
labcurve
, e.g., label.curves=
list(method="arrow",
cex=.8)
.
These option names may be abbreviated in the usual way arguments
are abbreviated. Use for example label.curves=list(keys=letters[1:5])
to draw single lower case letters on 5 curves where they are most
separated, and automatically position a legend
in the most empty part of the plot. The col
, lty
, and
lwd
parameters are passed automatically to labcurve
although they may be overridden here.
It is also useful to use ... to pass lattice
graphics parameters, e.g.
par.settings=list(axis.text=list(cex=1.2), par.ylab.text=list(col='blue',cex=.9),par.xlab.text=list(cex=1))
.
an object having a print
method
y-coordinate for placing text in a lattice
panel
or on a base graphics plot
character expansion size for pantext
text justification. Default is left justified.
font family for pantext
. Default is "Courier"
which
will line up columns of a table.
set to FALSE
to use text
instead of
ltext
in the function generated by pantext
, to use base
graphics

When a groups
(superpositioning) variable was used, you can issue
the command Key(...)
after printing the result of
plot.Predict
, to draw a key for the groups.
