New Statistics two samples (idependent & dependent)

Source: R/NewStats_2samples.R
NewStats_2samples.Rd

It plots the two samples and the difference between them with their confidence intervals (CI), based on the two samples being independent or dependent.

Usage

NewStats_2samples(
  x,
  y,
  dep = FALSE,
  conf.level = 0.95,
  col.x = "blue",
  col.y = "green3",
  col.diff = "red",
  ylab.diff = "Difference"
)

Arguments

x

Sample 1

y

Sample 2

dep

Logical indicating if the samples are dependent (Default is F)

conf.level

Confidence level for the interval (Default is 0.95)

col.x

Color to use for sample 1

col.y

Color to use for sample 2

col.diff

Color to use for the difference

ylab.diff

Label for the secondary y-axis for the difference

Value

A ggplot object

Details

The labels of the plot are generic but they can be customised using the labs() and scale_x_discrete(labels = c()) functions. For the dependent samples case the two means are joined by a line, to indicate the dependency
