love_plot: Love plot of standardized effect sizes

In baselinr: WWC-Aligned Baseline Equivalence Tables for Education Impact Evaluations

Love plot of standardized effect sizes

Description

Plots the standardized effect size for each covariate from baseline_equivalence(), with reference lines at the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) thresholds (0.05 and 0.25) and points coloured by WWC category. Requires the ggplot2 package.

Usage

love_plot(equivalence, signed = FALSE)

Arguments

equivalence	A data frame returned by baseline_equivalence().
signed	Logical. If FALSE (default), plot absolute effect sizes with reference lines at 0.05 and 0.25. If TRUE, plot signed effect sizes with symmetric reference lines and a line at zero.

Value

A ggplot object.

Examples

if (requireNamespace("ggplot2", quietly = TRUE)) {
  df <- data.frame(
    treat = c(1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0),
    pretest = c(5, 6, 7, 4, 5, 6),
    female = c(1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1)
  )
  love_plot(baseline_equivalence(df, "treat"))
}
