ggexch: Correlational Analyses of Dyad-Level Data in the...

Description Arguments Details Author(s) References Examples

Description

Conducts correlational analyses of dyad-level data in the exchangeable-case, based on Griffin & Gonzalez (1995).

Arguments

data

An all-numeric dataframe where the rows are cases & the columns are the variables. Cases with missing values are not permitted in the data file. The first collumn of data must contain the dyad numbers (the dyad id# given to both dyad members). The second and subsequent collumns contain the variables to be analyzed.

Details

The simplest nested data structures are based on dyads. The ggdist function described elsewhere in this package can be used when the dyadic partners are distinguishable (and not exchangeable or interchangeable), because they are drawn from different classes or categories, such as men and women. The ggexch function can be used for dyad-level data wherein the partners are exchangeable or interchangeable, as in pairs of men, pairs of women, or pairs of same-sex children. This function performs the statistical analyses described by Gonzalez and Griffin (1995).

Produces the overall within-partner correlation, the overall cross-partner correlation, intraclass correlations, and statistics for dyad-level and individual-level effects.
