baplot: Produce a Bland-Altman plot.

In sklarsomega: Measuring Agreement Using Sklar's Omega Coefficient

Produce a Bland-Altman plot.

Description

Produce a Bland-Altman plot.

Usage

baplot(
  x,
  y,
  pch = 20,
  col = "black",
  bg = "black",
  main = "",
  xlab = "Mean",
  ylab = "Difference",
  lwd1 = 1,
  lwd2 = 1,
  cex = 1,
  lcol = "black"
)

Arguments

x	the first vector of outcomes.
y	the second vector of outcomes.
pch	the plotting character. Defaults to 20, a bullet.
col	the foreground color. Defaults to black.
bg	the background color. Defaults to black.
main	a title for the plot. Defaults to no title, i.e., "".
xlab	a title for the x axis. Defaults to "Mean".
ylab	a title for the y axis. Defaults to "Difference".
lwd1	the line width for the scatter plot. Defaults to 1.
lwd2	the line width for the confidence band. Defaults to 1.
cex	scaling factor for the scatter plot. Defaults to 1.
lcol	line color for the confidence band. Defaults to black.

Details

This function produces rather customizable Bland-Altman plots, using the plot and abline functions. The former is used to create the scatter plot. The latter is used to display the confidence band.
