Estimates for a 2x2 mixed factorial design with a continuous outcome variable

Description

Returns object estimate_mdiff_2x2_mixed is suitable for a 2x2 mixed-factorial design with a continuous outcome variable. It estimates each main effect, the simple effects for the repeated-measures factor, and the interaction. It can express these estimates as mean differences. This function accepts raw data only. Standardized mean differences are not (yet) available; stay tuned. Median differences are also not yet available.

Usage

estimate_mdiff_2x2_mixed(
  data,
  outcome_variable_level1,
  outcome_variable_level2,
  grouping_variable,
  outcome_variable_name = "My outcome variable",
  repeated_measures_name = "Time",
  conf_level = 0.95,
  save_raw_data = TRUE
)

Arguments

data

For raw data - a dataframe or tibble

outcome_variable_level1

The column name of the outcome variable for level 1 of the repeated-measures factor

outcome_variable_level2

The column name of the outcome variable for level 2 of the repeated-measures factor

grouping_variable

The column name of the grouping variable; only 2 levels allowed; must be a factor

outcome_variable_name

Optional friendly name for the outcome variable. Defaults to 'My outcome variable' or the outcome variable column name if a data frame is passed.

repeated_measures_name

Optional friendly name for the repeated measures factor. Defaults to 'Time'

conf_level

The confidence level for the confidence interval. Given in decimal form. Defaults to 0.95.

save_raw_data

For raw data; defaults to TRUE; set to FALSE to save memory by not returning raw data in estimate object

Details

Reach for this function in place of a 2x2 mixed-factorial ANOVA.

Once you generate an estimate with this function, you can visualize it with plot_mdiff() and you can visualize the interaction specifically with plot_interaction(). You can test hypotheses with test_mdiff().

The estimated mean differences are from statpsych::ci.2x2.mean.mixed().
