Significance stars for p-values

Description

Function returns significance stars for p-values, most likely for use in tables that report the results of multiple statistical tests. An empty string is returned for NAs, unless that behaviour is overwritten.

Usage

sigstars(p, stars = NULL, pad_html = FALSE, ns = FALSE, return_NAs = FALSE)

Arguments

`p`	A p-value or (more commonly) a vector of p-values
`stars`	A character vector to change the significance symbols (see details in 'sigstars')
`pad_html`	Should all results be padded right to the same width with HTML non-breaking spaces?
`ns`	Logical. Should non-significant values be highlighted as "ns"?
`return_NAs`	Logical. Should NAs be returned? If not, empty strings are returned instead.

Details

Symbols and tresholds are *** p < .001, ** p < .01, * p < .05 and † p < .1. The symbols can be changed by named character vector sorted descendingly to the stars argument. For the default, the argument would be stars <- c(`&dagger;` = .1, `*` = 0.05, `**` = 0.01, `***` = 0.001)
