In eatRep: Educational Assessment Tools for Replication Methods

eatRep 0.14.7

• exemplary with variable labels stored as attributed
• add 'jkfac' argument to functions which call BIFIEsurvey functions
• trend analyses (with warning messages) now are possible when levels of grouping variables differ between assessment cycles
• bug fix in the internally used function which checks linking error object for consistency
• bug fix in repLmer when no weights are defined
• reporting function was slightly simplified (i.e., remove additional target formats)

eatRep 0.14.6

• add function repLmer() for replication methods for linear multilevel models (wrapper to BIFIEsurvey::BIFIE.twolevelreg())
• bug fix in internally used check function whether levels of grouping variable(s) are equal across assessment cycles (trend groups)
• bug fix in singularity treatment of repGlm()
• bug fix in repQuantile()
• add Ns (sample size) to the output of repTable() function
• add tests for repQuantile() and repLmer()

eatRep 0.14.5

• compatibility with lavaan version 0.6-12

eatRep 0.14.4

• bug fix in computation of adjusted weighted means
• enhance performance in recursive calls (e.g., trend estimation)

eatRep 0.14.3

• add alternative output formats for the reporting function (argument target)
• bug fix in standard error computation of trend estimates
• bug fix in repQuantile when using 0% or 100% percentil
• enhance performance when using the BIFIEsurvey wrapper

eatRep 0.14.0

• sorting of parameters and determination coefficient enhanced in reporting function for repGlm()
• add function checkLEs which checks consistency of linking errors with data which stem from an eatGADS data base
• trend estimation was broadened for more than two measurement occasions
• add class identifier in exemplary data

eatRep 0.13.7

• add CR0 and CR2 methods for weighted effect coding with heterogeneous variances in repMean() and repGlm(), including a cluster argument
• add class ID variable to example data set
• bug fix: fixed inadequate column definition in the reporting function for repQuantile()
• adapt repQuantile function for rewritten function svyquantile from the survey package
• slightly revised vignette

eatRep 0.13.6

• add asterisks for significance in the console output of the reporting function for repGlm()
• bug fix: fixed inadvertent warning message in function for group checks
• bug fix: call svyby with return.replicates = FALSE for quantile function

eatRep 0.13.5

• added vignette
• added a balanced repeated replication example in the examples for repMean()
• added an internal check that persons are nested within groups

Bug Fixes

• fixed report for cross differences when levels of grouping variable contained the variable name
• fixed missing entries in mode column in the output of repMean()
• eatRep::repMean(...) now works as well as library(eatRep); repMean(...)
• added tests for repGlm() function

eatRep 0.13.4.9000

• Switch to Github Action for CI

eatRep 0.13.4

• Initial CRAN release
