Plotting pre-post results in R

Image
A quick code to create a useful plot to visualise pre- and post-test results. I was inspired by this  post , this  post , and this  post . A scatterplot between pre-test and post-test scores for the control and the training group is presented. The straight black lines represent correlations between pre-test and post-test scores within the two groups. The straight lightgrey line represents the same values at pre-test and post-test –> Subjects above the line display a better performance at post-test compared to pre-test. At the margins, the boxplots are reported as well as the mean (i.e., diamond) and 95% confidence intervals (i.e., error bars). In the case of the post-test scores (plot on the right margin), the adjusted means (i.e., black triangles) and associated 95% confidence intervals (i.e., error bars) are reported. The table reports the results for the ANCOVA and its assumptions. In this example, participants in the training group show an improvement in a Working ...

A simple function to create a regression output in R

Image
There are several ways to create an output of regression analysis in R. This is a simple custom made function. # Clear all rm(list=ls()) # Libraries library(QuantPsyc) # Regression summary function table_lm <- function(lm_object, digit_rounding){   summary_lmobject = summary(lm_object)   df_output = data.frame(   predictors = names(lm_object$coefficients),   beta = round(as.numeric(summary_lmobject$coefficients[,1]), digit_rounding),   SE = round(as.numeric(summary_lmobject$coefficients[,2]), digit_rounding),   SE95ci_low = round(as.numeric(confint(lm_object, level = 0.95)[,1]),digit_rounding),   SE95ci_high = round(as.numeric(confint(lm_object, level = 0.95)[,2]),digit_rounding),   stdbeta = c(NA,round(lm.beta(lm_object), digit_rounding)),   ttest = round(summary_lmobject$coefficients[,3], digit_rounding),   pvalues = sapply(as.numeric(summary_lmobject$coefficients[,4]),             ...

Get some morning light!

Image
The early morning hours, just after sunrise, can be a magical time of day. The light is soft, the air is cool, and the world is still relatively quiet. But did you know that there are also some significant health benefits to exposing yourself to early morning light? In this blog post, we'll explore some of the benefits of early morning light exposure and why it's worth making the effort to rise early and enjoy the morning light. Improved sleep patterns.  One of the most important benefits of early morning light exposure is that it can help to regulate your sleep patterns. Exposure to natural light in the morning helps to reset your body's internal clock, making it easier to fall asleep at night and wake up in the morning. This is because exposure to morning light helps to suppress the production of melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep, and increase cortisol, a hormone that helps you feel more awake and alert. Boosted mood.  Exposure to early morning light has also be...
