In saudiwin/idealstan: Generalized IRT Ideal Point Models with 'Stan'

Plot Results of id_estimate

Description

This function allows you to access the full range of plotting options for fitted idealstan models.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'idealstan'
id_plot(object, plot_type = "persons", ...)

Arguments

object	A fitted idealstan object
plot_type	Specify the plot as a character string. Currently 'persons' for legislator/person ideal point plot, 'histogram' for a histogram of model estimates for given parameters. Alternatively, use the param option to specify a specific model parameter.
...	Additional arguments passed on to the underlying functions. See individual function documentation for details.
param	A character name of a parameter from an idealstan model.

Details

id_plot is a wrapper function that can access the various plotting functions available in the idealstan package. Currently, the options are limited to a plot of legislator/person ideal points with bills/item midpoints as an optional overlay. Additional plots will be available in future versions of idealstan.

Value

A ggplot object
