Function for plotting of "statcheck" objects. Reported p values are plotted against recalculated p values, which allows the user to easily spot if articles contain miscalculations of statistical results.

plot(x, alpha = 0.05, APAstyle = TRUE, group = NULL, ...)

arguments to be passed to methods, such as graphical parameters (see par).
If APAstyle = FALSE, inconsistencies between the reported and the recalculated p value are indicated with an orange dot. Recalculations of the p value that render a previously non significant result (p >= .5) as significant (p < .05), and vice versa, are considered gross errors, and are indicated with a red dot. Exactly reported p values (i.e. p = ..., as opposed to p < ... or p > ...) are indicated with a diamond.
