Force all comparisons in a "multicomp" object to have the same sign.

Description

Force all comparisons in a "multicomp" object to have the same sign. If the contrast "A-B" has a negative estimate, reverse it show the contrast "B-A" with a positive estimate. If a contrast name does not include a minus sign "-" and the contrast is reversed, then an informative message is printed.

Usage

multicomp.reverse(y, estimate.sign = 1, ...)

Arguments

y	"multicomp" object
estimate.sign	If estimate.sign==1, reverse the negatives. If estimate.sign==-1, reverse the positives. Both the names of the comparisons and the numerical values are reversed. If estimate.sign==0, return the argument.
...	other arguments not used.

Value

The result is a "multicomp" object containing the same contrasts as the argument but with the sign of the contrasts changed as needed.

Note

S-Plus use the multicomp functions and R uses the multcomp package.
