structSumIPC: Structural Summary Method for the Interpersonal Circumplex

Description Usage Arguments Details Value References Examples

Description

Computes scores from the structural summary method (Gurtman, 1992; Gurtman & Pincus, 2003; Wright, Pincus, Conroy, & Hilsenroth, 2009) for the interpresonal circumplex.

Usage

1
structSumIPC(x, ord = c("PA", "BC", "DE", "FG", "HI", "JK", "LM", "NO"))

Arguments

x

A matrix or data.frame containing the association values (e.g., correlations) between the variable(s) of interest and the IPC scales. The IPC scales should be the columns and the variable(s) of interest should be the rows.

ord

A character vector of length eight specifying the order of the IPC scales (columns) in x. By default the function assumes they are in counter-clockwise order starting from the vertical axis at 12:00.

Details

This function is used to create a unit-weighted composite of the variables listed in the columns of the matrix or data.frame "set" for each row. The nomiss option lets one specify the proportion of valid cases required for the composite mean to be computed. By default, the mean is computed if at least 80 percent of the data in the the row are valid.

Value

A data.frame containing the following columns:

DOM

Item's association with the dominance dimension of the IPC

LOV

Item's association with the warmth dimension of the IPC

DEG

Item's angle on the IPC grid (from 0 to 360)

AMP

Item's discriminant validity; degree to which it corresponds to only a single octant

ELEV

Item's mean level of assocation across all 8 octants

SStot

Item's total sums of squares with the IPC

Rsq

Item's goodness-of-fit with the IPC (how well do the summary stats capture the correlations between the item and the octants).
