Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also Examples
This method uses a formula and fixed data/parameters to allow for analysis
of the crisis signaling game under specific settings.
This function is very similar to predict.sigfit
, but it is designed
for analysis outside of conducting counterfactuals on a fitted model.

formulas |
a Formula object with no left-hand side and seven separate (7) right-hand sides. See "Details" and examples below. |
data |
a data frame containing the variables in the model Each row of the data frame describes an individual game d = 1, 2, ..., D. Each row d should be a summary of all of the within-game observations for game d. If the model is all constants, then this argument should be left empty. |
theta |
a data frame with one or more rows where each row is a parameter vector. |
type |
whether to provide probabilities over actions (default, returns p_C, p_R, and p_F) or outcomes (returns SQ, CD, SF, and BD). |

|
This function is used to consider comparative statics in the crisis signaling game, where the model
of interest has pre-defined parameters.
As such, it requires, at minimum, a seven-part formula and parameters.
How this function behaves has to do with how data
and theta
are specified.
When the model is all constants (every part of the formula
argument is either 0
or 1
),
then data
is ignored.
In these cases, equilibria are computed for every parameter vector, which are supplied
as rows in a data frame to theta
.
When there is one or more covariate in the model, then a data frame must be supplied to data
.
In these cases both data
or theta
must have at least one row.
However, only one of these arguments can have multiple rows. In other words, only
data
or theta
may vary, but not both.
For additional implementation details see predict.sigfit
.
An object of class sigProb
containing three elements:
predicted
data frame of predicted probabilities. The first column of this data frame is
called Row
, which corresponds to the rows in either model
or par
.
In the event of multiple equilibria, this column allows for mapping data and parameters to
all computed equilibria.
model
data frame of covariates used to produce the predicted probabilities.
par
data frame of parameters used to produce the predicted probabilities.
