describedata: Miscellaneous descriptive and SAS/Stata duplicate functions
Description
The helpR package contains descriptive functions for tasks such as making print-friendly bivariate tables, sample size flow counts, and more. It also contains R approximations of some common, useful SAS/Stata functions.
Frequency functions
The helper functions bivariate_compare
and
univar_freq
create frequency tables. univar_freq
produces simple n and percent for categories of a single variable,
while bivariate_compare
compares continuous or categorical
variables across categories of a comparison variable. This is particularly
useful for generating a Table 1 or 2 for a publication manuscript.
Sample size functions
sample_flow
produces tables illustrating how final sample
size is determined and the number of participants excluded by each
exclusion criteria.
Other helper functions
nagelkerke
calculates the Nagelkerke pseudo r-squared for a
logistic regression model.
Stata replica functions
ladder
, gladder
, and pwcorr
are
approximate replicas of the respective Stata functions. Not all
functionality is currently incorporated. stata_tidy
reformats R model output to a format similar to Stata.
SAS replica functions
proc_means
is an approximate replica of the respective SAS
function. Not all functionality is currently incorporated.
