Pareto Plot of Effects

Usage

pareto_plot(
  model,
  alpha = 0.05,
  method = "Lenth",
  effect_colors = c("#F8766D", "#00BFC4"),
  margin_errors = TRUE,
  showplot = TRUE
)

Arguments

model

Model of class "lm"

alpha

specify the significance level to compute margin of errors. Numeric significance level, between 0 and 1. Default is alpha=0.05

method

Character value. Method to calculate PSE. Default is Lenth. Options include: Zahn, WZahn, Lenth, RMS, Dong, JuanPena, Daniel. See Details.

effect_colors

Change colors of effects. Default are ('#F8766D','#00BFC4') for negative and positive effects, respectively.

margin_errors

Default is TRUE, if false the cutoffs for margin of errors (ME) and simultaneous margin of error (SME) are not shown

showplot

Default is TRUE, if false plot will not be shown and a tibble is returned with data used to create the pareto plot

Value

A bar plot with ordered effects, margin of error (ME) and simultaneous margin of error (SME) cutoffs.

Details

The method argument is a simple wrapper for the function PSE() from the unrepx R package. For more details you can use ?unrepx::PSE(). The method arguement implements methods of estimating the standard error of effects estimates from unreplicatd designs. The methods include

  • Daniel: The 68.3rd quantile of the absolute effects. See Daniel (1959)

  • Dong: The RMS method, applied after excluding all effects that exceed 2.5 * PSE(effects, "SMedian") in absolute value. See Dong (1993)

  • JuanPena: An iterated median method whereby we repeatedly calculate the median of the absolute effects that don't exceed 3.5 times the previous median, until it stabilizes. The estimate is the final median, divided by .6578. See Juan and Pena (1992).

  • Lenth (Default): The SMedian method, applied after excluding all effects that exceed 2.5 * PSE(effects, "SMedian") in absolute value. See Lenth (1989)

  • RMS: Square root of the mean of the squared effects. This is not a good PSE in the presence of active effects, but it is provided for sake of comparisons

  • SMedian: 1.5 times the median of the absolute effects

  • Zahn, WZahn: The Zahn method is the slope of the least-squares line fitted to the first m points of unrepx::hnplot(effects, horiz = FALSE), where m = floor(.683 * length(effects)). (This line is fitted through the origin.) The WZahn method is an experimental version of Zahn's method, based on weighted least-squares with weights decreasing linearly from m - .5 to .5, but bounded above by .65m
