R: Plot the results of a simulation of the fixed effects

plotFEsim {merTools} | R Documentation

## Plot the results of a simulation of the fixed effects

### Description

Plot the simulated fixed effects on a ggplot2 chart

### Usage

    plotFEsim(data, level = 0.95, stat = "median", sd = TRUE,
      intercept = FALSE, sigmaScale = NULL, oddsRatio = FALSE)

### Arguments

`data` | a data.frame generated by `FEsim` with simulations of the fixed effects of a `merMod`
`level` | the width of the confidence interval
`stat` | a character value indicating the variable name in data of the midpoint of the estimated interval, e.g. "mean" or "median"
`sd` | logical, indicating whether or not to plot error bars around the estimates (default is TRUE). Calculates the width of the error bars based on `level` and the variable named "sd" in `data`
`intercept` | logical, should the intercept be included, default is FALSE
`sigmaScale` | a numeric value to divide the estimate and the standard deviation by in the case of doing an effect size calculation
`oddsRatio` | logical, should the parameters be converted to odds ratios before plotting

### Value

a ggplot2 plot of the coefficient effects

### Examples

     require(ggplot2); require(lme4);
     fm1 <- lmer(Reaction ~ Days + (Days | Subject), sleepstudy)
     (p1 <- plotFEsim(FEsim(fm1)))
