In this example, we are interested how the economic inequality affect the impact of income on the U.S. citizensâ belief in meritocracy, a critical ideology of the âAmerican Dream.â We estimated this conditional effect based on an interaction model with three years of Pew surveys (2006, 2007, and 2009), in which the income is the conditioned variable and economic inequality (county-level Gini coefficients).In some cases, one may analyze some complicated or self-made regression functions which are not supported by the current version of The development of the package is ongoing, and future research promises a compatible tool for more types of regressions and more functions. Interaction is a powerful tool to test conditional effects of one variable on the contribution of another variable to the dependent variable and has been extensively applied in the empirical research of social science since the 1970s Furthermore, scholars have noticed that the point estimations of some interaction models, especially those depending on link functions (e.g., logit and probit) may not be as reliable as the estimates of the confidence intervals This vignette purposes to illustrate how users can apply these functions to improve the presentation of the interactions in their models.Suppose we are interested in how automobile weight affects the relationship between of the number of engine cylinders on mileage and how the number of cylinders affects the relationship between the carâs weight and its mileage. When the 'm' is an object of class 'glmerMod' and the argument is set to 'TRUE', the function will plot predicted probabilities at the values given by 'var2_vals'.A numerical value indicating the values the predicted probabilities are estimated, when 'predPro' is 'TRUE'.A logical value determining the format of plot. interplot is a tool for plotting the conditional coefficients ("marginal effects") of variables included in multiplicative interaction terms. The plot also includes simulated 95% confidential intervals of these coefficients. This is just an illustration When the object is a model, the default is the distribution of 'var2' of the model.A logical value with default of 'FALSE'.
One can see more comprehensive analyses in \[Y = \beta_0 + \beta_1X + \beta_2Z + \beta_3X\times Z + \varepsilon.\]\[\frac{\partial Y}{\partial X} = \beta_1 + \beta_3Z.\]\[\hat{\sigma}_{\frac{\partial Y}{\partial X}} = \sqrt{var(\hat{\beta_1}) + Z^2var(\hat{\beta_3}) + 2Zcov(\hat{\beta_1}, \hat{\beta_3})}.\](Berry, Golder, and Milton 2012; Brambor, Clark, and Golder 2006; Braumoeller 2004)# changing the angle of x labels for a clearer vision# Set `hist` to TRUE is required to superimpose a histogram.## The ribbon and histogram do not fit.
The default value is 95% (0.95).A logical value indicating if there is a histogram of 'var2' added at the bottom of the conditional effect plot.A numerical value indicating the frequency distribution of 'var2'. Plots the conditional coefficients ("marginal effects") of variables included in multiplicative interaction terms. This could be a time-consuming job, though, especially when researchers work on models with limited dependent variables. Rarely used.A numerical value indicating the maximum value shown of x shown in the graph. When either the conditioned or the conditioning base term of an interaction is a factor, Our implementation of this option was inspired by the excellent work of To accomplish this task requires researchers to go beyond estimating the effect for the âaverage case,â but focuses more on the values or intervals that are illustratively important and meaningful. Description. interplot is a tool for plotting the conditional coefficients ("marginal effects") of variables included in multiplicative interaction terms. interplot plots the changes in the conditional coefficient of one variable in the interaction, rather than changes in the dependent variable itself as in the aforementioned functions. Description Usage Arguments Details Value. By default, the function produces a line plot when var2 takes on ten or more distinct values and a point (dot-and-whisker) plot otherwise; option TRUE forces a point plot.Number of independent simulation draws used to calculate upper and lower bounds of coefficient estimates: lower values run faster; higher values produce smoother curves.A numerical value indicating the minimum value shown of x shown in the graph.
Rarely used.A character value indicating the outline color of the whisker or ribbon.A numerical value indicating the size of the whisker or ribbon.A numerical value indicating the transparency of the ribbon.A character value indicating the filling color of the ribbon.An optional character vector of facet labels to be used when plotting an interaction with a factor variable.Other ggplot aesthetics arguments for points in the dot-whisker plot or lines in the line-ribbon plots. The function plots the changes in the coefficient of one variable in a two-way interaction term conditional on the value of the other included variable.
