t_out: Format t-Test Output

Description

Distilles the most relevant data from an output object of t.test and displays the results in a compact format.

Usage

t_out(toutput, n.equal = TRUE,
	welch.df.exact = TRUE, welch.n = NA,
	d.corr = TRUE, print = TRUE)

Arguments

toutput

Output object created by a call to t.test.

n.equal

Only applicable to two-sample t-tests. If sample sizes are not equal, n.equal specifies a vector of sample sizes, e.g., n.equal = c(12,8).

welch.df.exact

Only applicable to Welch-tests. Indicates whether Welch-adjusted or unadjusted degrees of freedom (dfs) are reported (default=TRUE, i.e., Welch-adjusted dfs). If set to FALSE, the parameter welch.n has to be set as well.

welch.n

Only applicable to Welch-tests with unadjusted degrees of freedom. Parameter should be equal to the total sample size n=n_1+n_2.

d.corr

Only applicable to one-sample or paired-samples t-tests. If TRUE (default), Cohen's ds are computed using sqrt(2)-correction.

print

Force results to be displayed, even if the function output is assigned to a variable (e.g., output <- t_out(...); logical; default=TRUE).

Value

t_out(toutput,...) returns a list containing (1) a description of the t-test (two-sample t-test, Welch-test, paired-samples t-test, one-sample t-test) and (2) a line with formatted results.

Details

The output of a call to t_out is formatted according to the guidelines of the APA (American Psychological Association) as well as the DGPs ("Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Psychologie"; German Psychological Society).
