| plot2.mma {mma} | R Documentation |
Relative effects plot of the fitted mma object with moderator
Description
Plot the marginal effect of the selected variable on the outcome, and the marginal effect of the predictor on the selected variable, at each level of the moderator.
Usage
plot2.mma(x,...,vari,xlim=NULL,alpha=0.95,quantile=FALSE,moderator,xj=1)
Arguments
x |
a mma object created initially call to boot.mod. |
vari |
an indices or the name of the variable to plot. |
xlim |
the range of the variable to be plotted. |
alpha |
for continuous predictor only, to draw the alpha confidence interval of the indirect effect. |
quantile |
for continuous predictor only, if true to draw the alpha confidence interval of the indirect effect based on quantile, otherwise, based on the normal approximation. |
... |
other arguments passed to the plot function. |
moderator |
the name of the moderator. |
xj |
the moderation effect on the xjth predictor. |
Details
plot2.mma plots the marginal effect of the selected variable on the outcome, and the marginal effect of the predictor on the selected variable, at each level of the moderator. If the predictor is binary, draw a histogram or boxplot of the marginal density of the variable at each different value of the predictor.
Value
No return value, called for graphs
