umxCompare: Print a comparison table of one or more 'OpenMx::mxModel()'s,...

In tbates/umx: Structural Equation Modeling and Twin Modeling in R

Print a comparison table of one or more OpenMx::mxModel()s, formatted nicely.

Description

umxCompare compares two or more OpenMx::mxModel()s. It has several nice features:

1. It supports direct control of rounding, and reports p-values rounded to APA style.

2. It reports the table in your preferred format (default is markdown, options include latex).

3. Table columns are arranged to make for easy comparison for readers.

4. report = 'inline', will provide an English sentence suitable for a paper.

5. report = "html" opens a web table in your browser to paste into a word processor.

Note: If you leave comparison blank, it will just give fit info for the base model

Usage

umxCompare(
  base = NULL,
  comparison = NULL,
  all = TRUE,
  digits = 3,
  report = c("markdown", "html", "inline"),
  compareWeightedAIC = FALSE,
  silent = FALSE,
  file = "tmp.html"
)

Arguments

base	The base OpenMx::mxModel() for comparison
comparison	The model (or list of models) which will be compared for fit with the base model (can be empty)
all	Whether to make all possible comparisons if there is more than one base model (defaults to T)
digits	rounding for p-values etc.
report	"markdown" (default), "inline" (a sentence suitable for inclusion in a paper), or "html". create a web table and open your default browser. (handy for getting tables into Word, and other text systems!)
compareWeightedAIC	Show the Wagenmakers AIC weighted comparison (default = FALSE)
silent	(don't print, just return the table as a dataframe (default = FALSE)
file	file to write html too if report = "html" (defaults to "tmp.html")

Examples

## Not run: 
require(umx)
data(demoOneFactor)
manifests = names(demoOneFactor)

m1 = umxRAM("One Factor", data = demoOneFactor, type = "cov",
	umxPath("G", to = manifests),
	umxPath(var = manifests),
	umxPath(var = "G", fixedAt = 1)
)

m2 = umxModify(m1, update = "G_to_x2", name = "drop_path_2_x2")
umxCompare(m1, m2)
umxCompare(m1, m2, report = "inline") # Add English-sentence descriptions
umxCompare(m1, m2, report = "html") # Open table in browser

# Two comparison models
m3 = umxModify(m2, update = "G_to_x3", name = "drop_path_2_x2_and_3")

umxCompare(m1, c(m2, m3))
umxCompare(m1, c(m2, m3), compareWeightedAIC = TRUE)
umxCompare(c(m1, m2), c(m2, m3), all = TRUE)

manifests = names(demoOneFactor)
m1 = umxRAM("WLS", data = demoOneFactor, type = "DWLS",
	umxPath("G", to = manifests),
	umxPath(var = manifests),
	umxPath(var = "G", fixedAt = 1)
)

m2 = umxModify(m1, update = "G_to_x2", name = "drop_path_2_x2")
umxCompare(m1, m2)
umxCompare(m1, m2, report = "inline") # Add English-sentence descriptions
umxCompare(m1, m2, report = "html") # Open table in browser

## End(Not run)
