sigma_conv_graph {convergEU}

Graphical representation based on sigma convergence

Description

A ggplot of the standard deviation and the coefficient of variation based on the results obtained for sigma-convergence

Usage

sigma_conv_graph(
  sigmaconvOut,
  time_0 = NA,
  time_t = NA,
  aggregation = NA,
  x_angle = 45
)

Arguments

sigmaconvOut

the output obtained from sigma_conv function.

time_0

starting time.

time_t

ending time.

aggregation

the name of the set of member states for which the sigma-convergence is calculated.

x_angle

axis orientation for time labels, default 45.

Value

a ggplot object to be displayed of saved using ggsave.

Examples

# Example 1
# Sigma convergence for the emp_20_64_MS Eurofound dataset in the period 2002-2006:
data(emp_20_64_MS)
reSigConv <- sigma_conv(emp_20_64_MS, timeName = "time", time_0 = 2002,time_t = 2006)

# Graphical plot based on the results for sigma-convergence
reSiggraph<-sigma_conv_graph(reSigConv,2002,2006,aggregation = 'EU27')

# Example 2
# Sigma-convergence for the emp_20_64_MS Eurofound dataset in the period 2008-2016:
reSigConv1 <- sigma_conv(emp_20_64_MS, timeName = "time", time_0 = 2008,time_t = 2016)

# Graphical plot based on the results for sigma-convergence
reSiggraph1<-sigma_conv_graph(reSigConv1,2008,2016,aggregation = 'EU27')

# Select different time windows, e.g. 2012-2016 and change x_angle:
reSiggraph2<-sigma_conv_graph(reSigConv1,2012,2016,aggregation = 'EU27', x_angle=90)
