calibrationMarginStats: Stats for initial weights, calibrated weights, and margins.

In icarus: Calibrates and Reweights Units in Samples

Stats for initial weights, calibrated weights, and margins.

Description

Gives stats about the calibration process: differences between totals after/before calibration and margins. Totals for categorical variables are displayed in percentages. (same as first panels output in Calmar/Calmar 2) Output is a list, which might not be convenient for exports (e.g. for integration into a scientific report). In such cases, use function marginStats, which outputs a dataframe.

Usage

calibrationMarginStats(
  data,
  marginMatrix,
  popTotal = NULL,
  pct = FALSE,
  colWeights,
  colCalibratedWeights = NULL,
  calibThreshold = 1
)

Arguments

data	dataframe containing the survey data
marginMatrix	matrix of margins
popTotal	total of population, useful if margins are entered in relative value
pct	Set this to true if margins for categorical variables are written in percentages
colWeights	name of weights column in the dataframe
colCalibratedWeights	name of calibrated weights column in the dataframe (if applicable)
calibThreshold	If difference between calibration estimate and margin differ more than this parameter, calibration is considered to have failed

Value

List containing stats on weights and margins
