CORSET PLOT

Description

This function visualizes a corset plot in wide format.

Arguments

data

The name of the data frame.

y_var1

The name of measured variable at time 1.

y_var2

The name of measured variable at time 2.

group

The name of units measured at each time point such as 'ID'. The trajectories of these units are visualized by the lines of the corset plot.

c_var

The name of variable to visualize by line colour, such as percent change, magnitude of change, or direction of change.

eyelets

Optional (default is FALSE). If set to true, this will visualize one of two mean types by c_var, as defined by the 'e_type' argument.

e_type

Optional eyelet type if the eyelets parameter is set to TRUE. One of "SE" or "SD". The default is standard error ("SE") means. Alternatively, standard deviations ("SD") with means can be specified, which include horizontal lines to denote +1 and -1 standard deviation. Note that the visualization of standard deviations works best in tandem with the faceted option.

faceted

Optional (default is FALSE). If set to true, the c_var will be faceted.

facet_design

Optional facet type when the faceted parameter is set to TRUE. One of "original","group", or "line". The default is "original", which provides facets void of any special features. The "group" option includes the overall distribution of the entire sample in the background of each facet (which defaults to the 'vio_fill' colour), alongside each distribution for each c_var group. The "line" option includes all individual trajectories in the background of each facet using a soft grey (default) or custom colour as chosen by 'line_col' argument.

vio_fill

Optional (defaults to a soft black). Use to change the fill colour of the half violins.

line_size

Optional. Use to change the size (thickness) of the lines which visualize change for each unit identified by the group variable. Default is 0.25.

line_col

Optional custom colour of the background individual lines when the facet_design is set to "line". Defaults to a soft grey.

line_dodge

Optional. Use to change the amount of vertical dodge of the lines which visualize each unit of the group variable. Default is 0.1.

Value

Examples


wide.df <- data.frame(id = c(1:20),
             time1 = c(3,4,7,5,6,3,4,1,7,0,5,2,0,1,6,2,1,7,4,6),
             time2  = c(5,5,7,3,0,3,3,2,7,0,3,4,3,3,7,0,0,6,5,6))

wide.df$change <- wide.df$time2-wide.df$time1
wide.df$direction <- ifelse(wide.df$change==0,"No Change",
                           ifelse(wide.df$change>0,"Increase","Decrease"))

gg_corset(data = wide.df, y_var1 = "time1", y_var2 = "time2",
          group = "id", c_var = "change")

## Create corset plots with eyelets:

gg_corset(data = wide.df, y_var1 = "time1", y_var2 = "time2",
          group = "id", c_var = "direction", eyelets = TRUE)

## Create faceted corset plots based on direction of change:

gg_corset(data = wide.df, y_var1 = "time1", y_var2 = "time2",
          group = "id", c_var = "direction", faceted = TRUE)

## Create faceted corset plots with standard deviation eyelets:

gg_corset(data = wide.df, y_var1 = "time1", y_var2 = "time2", group = "id",
          c_var = "direction", e_type = "SD", faceted = TRUE)
