This function compares the median of a continuous variable across levels of a
categorical variable and summarizes the results in a clean table for a
statistical report. Similar to tabmeans
, but for survey data.
Relies heavily on the survey package [1, 2].

|
svy |
Survey design object created by a call to svydesign [1,2]. |
x |
Vector of values for the categorical variable. |
y |
Vector of values for the continuous variable. |
latex |
If |
xlevels |
Optional character vector to label the levels of |
yname |
Optional label for the |
test |
Controls statistical test. Must be a possible value for the |
parenth |
Controls what values (if any) are placed in parentheses after the medians in
each cell. Possible values are |
text.label |
Optional text to put after the |
parenth.sep |
Optional character specifying the separator for the two numbers in parentheses
when |
decimals |
Number of decimal places for means and standard deviations or standard errors. |
p.decimals |
Number of decimal places for p-values. If a vector is provided rather than a
single value, number of decimal places will depend on what range the p-value
lies in. See |
p.include |
If |
p.cuts |
Cut-point(s) to control number of decimal places used for p-values. For example,
by default |
p.lowerbound |
Controls cut-point at which p-values are no longer printed as their value, but
rather <lowerbound. For example, by default |
p.leading0 |
If |
p.avoid1 |
If |
n.column |
If |
n.headings |
If |
bold.colnames |
If |
bold.varnames |
If |
variable.colname |
Character string with desired heading for first column of table, which shows the
|
print.html |
If |
html.filename |
Character string indicating the name of the .html file that gets printed if
|
NA
A character matrix with the requested table comparing median y
across
levels of x
. If latex = TRUE
, the character matrix will be
formatted for inserting into a Markdown/Sweave/knitr report using the
xtable
package [3].
If you wish to paste your tables into Word, you can use either of these approaches:
1. Use the write.cb
function in the Kmisc
package
[4]. If your table is stored in a character matrix named table1
, use
write.cb(table1)
to copy the table to your clipboard. Paste the result
into Word, then highlight the text and go to Insert - Table - Convert Text
to Table... OK
.
2. Set print.html = TRUE
. This will result in a .html file writing to
your current working directory. When you open this file, you will see a nice
looking table that you can copy and paste into Word. You can control the name of
this file with html.filename
.
If you wish to use LaTeX, R Markdown, knitr, Sweave, etc., set
latex = TRUE
and then use xtable
[3]. You may have to set
sanitize.text.function = identity
when calling
print.xtable
.
If you have suggestions for additional options or features, or if you would like some help using any function in tab, please e-mail me at vandomed@gmail.com. Thanks!
