S3 method to plot objects of the class fechner

further arguments to be passed to or from other methods. They are ignored in this function. |
The plot
method graphs the results obtained from Fechnerian
scaling analyses. It produces a scatterplot of the overall
Fechnerian distance G versus the S-index, with rugs
added to the axes and jittered (amount = 0.01
of noise) to
accommodate ties in the S-index and G values. The
diagonal line y = x is for visual inspection of the deviations
of the two types of values.
The level
of comparison refers to the minimum number of links
in geodesic loops. That is, choosing level n means that
comparison involves only those S-index and G values that
have geodesic loops containing not less than n links.
If there are no (off-diagonal) pairs of stimuli with geodesic loops
containing at least level
links (in this case a plot is not
possible), plot.fechner
stops with an error message.
If the arguments x
and level
are of required types,
and if there are (off-diagonal) pairs of stimuli with geodesic loops
containing at least level
links, plot.fechner
produces
a plot, and invisibly returns NULL
