Takes a meta4diag object produced by meta4diag() and plot the posterior marginals (possibly with underlying priors) for hyperparameters and fixed effects.
Usage
# S3 method for meta4diag
plot(x, var.type="var1", add=FALSE, overlay.prior = TRUE,
save = FALSE, width=5, height=5, ...)
Arguments
x
A meta4diag object.
var.type
Variable type that is of interest. Options are "var1", "var2", "rho" and names for fixed effects, which can be found after calling summary() function.
add
If add is TRUE, the plots are added to an existing plot, otherwise a new plot is created.
overlay.prior
Boolean to indicate whether the prior will be plotted overlay or not only for hyperparameters.
save
If save is TRUE, the plots are saved (pdf format) automatically in the working directory. save could also be a file name, i.e. save="plot1.eps", a file with name plot1 and eps format will be saved in the working directory.
width
The width when used for saving the plot, unit of inches is used.
height
The height when used for saving the plot, unit of inches is used.
…
Arguments to be passed to methods, such as graphical parameters (see par) such as "main", "sub", "xlab", "ylab".
Value
Besides plotting, the function returns an invisible NULL.
Details
Posterior marginal distribution possibly with underlying prior distribution is plotted.
