In JackEdTaylor/LexOPS: A Package and Shiny App for Generating Matched Stimuli

Convert a variable name to its measure

Description

Converts the name of a variable from LexOPS::lexops (e.g. "fpmw.SUBTLEX_US") into the name of its measure (e.g. "frequency per million words").

Usage

var_to_measure(
  var,
  first_cite = TRUE,
  default = "",
  title_caps = FALSE,
  include_pronunciations = TRUE,
  standard_eval = FALSE
)

Arguments

var	The variable name (non-standard evaluation)
first_cite	Logical; if TRUE, gives full name (e.g. frequency per million words), if FALSE, gives abbreviated name (e.g. FPMW)
default	The character string that should be returned if the variable does not have a known cietable source
title_caps	Logical; use title capitalisation (e.g. "Familiarity Ratings" rather than "famliarity ratings"). Default is FALSE.
include_pronunciations	Logical; allow pronunciation transpositions as measures (e.g. CMU.1letter). Default is TRUE.
standard_eval	Logical; bypasses non-standard evaluation. If TRUE, var should be a column name in quotation marks. If FALSE, the quotation marks are not necessary. Default = FALSE.

Value

A citation of a variable's source in APA format. Returns default if not recognised as a citeabile source.

Examples

var_to_measure(Zipf.SUBTLEX_UK)

var_to_measure("AROU.Glasgow_Norms", standard_eval = TRUE)

var_to_measure(AoA.Kuperman, first_cite = FALSE)
