nparcomp (version 3.0)

summary.nparcomp: Summary of nparcomp

Description

The function summary.nparcomp produces a result summary of nparcomp. It can only be applied to objects of class "nparcomp".

Usage

# S3 method for nparcomp
summary(object,...)

Arguments

object

An object of class "nparcomp", i.e. the result when applying nparcomp to a dataset. Otherwise an error will occur.

...

Arguments to be passed to methods.

Value

The function produces a summary of the result of nparcomp starting with some global information: alternative hypothesis, estimation method, type of contrast, confidence level, method, interpretation. This is followed by:

Data.Info

List of samples and sample sizes.

Contrast

Contrast matrix.

Analysis

Comparison: relative contrast effect , relative.effect: estimated relative contrast effect, Estimator: Estimated relative contrast effect, Lower: Lower limit of the simultaneous confidence interval, Upper: Upper limit of the simultaneous confidence interval, Statistic: Teststatistic p.Value: Adjusted p-values for the hypothesis by the choosen approximation method.

Overall

Overall p-value and critical value.

Details

Since summary.nparcomp is a S3 method it suffices to use summary(x) as long as x is of class "nparcomp". It will be interpreted as summary.nparcomp(x).
