Arguments passed down to the call to |
Following the advice of Hanmer and Kalkan (2013) the function calculates the average effect of a variable holding all other variables at observed values and then plots the result.
Either a plot or a list with a data frame containing the variables
mean |
The average effect (i.e., predicted probability) |
lower |
The lower 95% confidence bound |
upper |
The upper 95% confidence bound |
y |
The values of the dependent variable being predicted |
x |
The values of the independent variable being manipulated |
and the elements Ind or Mprob, as requested.
