CrossTable {descr}R Documentation

Cross tabulation with tests for factor independence

Description

An implementation of a cross-tabulation function with output similar to S-Plus crosstabs() and SAS Proc Freq (or SPSS format) with Chi-square, Fisher and McNemar tests of the independence of all table factors.

Usage

CrossTable(x, y, digits = 3, max.width = NA, expected = FALSE,
           prop.r = TRUE, prop.c = TRUE, prop.t = TRUE,
           prop.chisq = TRUE, chisq = FALSE, fisher = FALSE,
           mcnemar = FALSE, resid = FALSE, sresid = FALSE,
           asresid = FALSE, missing.include = FALSE,
           format = c("SAS","SPSS"), dnn = NULL, xlab, ylab,
           ...)

Arguments

x

A vector or a matrix. If y is specified, x must be a vector.

y

A vector in a matrix or a dataframe.

digits

Number of digits after the decimal point for cell proportions.

max.width

In the case of a 1 x n table, the default will be to print the output horizontally. If the number of columns exceeds max.width, the table will be wrapped for each successive increment of max.width columns. If you want a single column vertical table, set max.width to 1.

prop.r

If TRUE, row proportions will be included.

prop.c

If TRUE, column proportions will be included.

prop.t

If TRUE, table proportions will be included.

expected

If TRUE, chisq will be set to TRUE and expected cell counts from the Chi-Square will be included. The value of expected will be set to TRUE if chisq, resid, sresid, asresid or prop.chisq is TRUE.

prop.chisq

If TRUE, chi-square contribution of each cell will be included.

chisq

If TRUE, the results of a chi-square test will be included. The value of chisq will be set to TRUE if expected, resid, sresid or prop.chisq is TRUE.

fisher

If TRUE, the results of a Fisher Exact test will be included.

mcnemar

If TRUE, the results of a McNemar test will be included.

resid

If TRUE, residual (Pearson) will be included. The value of resid will be set to FALSE if format = "SAS".

sresid

If TRUE, standardized residual will be included. The value of sresid will be set to FALSE if format = "SAS".

asresid

If TRUE, adjusted standardized residual will be included. The value of asresid will be set to FALSE if format = "SAS".

missing.include

If TRUE, then remove any unused factor levels.

format

Either SAS (default) or SPSS, depending on the type of output desired.

dnn

the names to be given to the dimensions in the result (the dimnames names).

xlab

A title for the x axis when plotting the CrossTable object (see title).

ylab

A title for the y axis when plotting the CrossTable object (see title).

...

Optional arguments passed to chisq.test.

Details

A summary table will be generated with cell row, column and table proportions and marginal totals and proportions. Expected cell counts can be printed if desired (if 'chisq = TRUE'). In the case of a 2 x 2 table, both corrected and uncorrected values will be included for appropriate tests. In the case of tabulating a single vector, cell counts and table proportions will be printed.

Note 1: If 'x' is a vector and 'y' is not specified, no statistical tests will be performed, even if any are set to TRUE.

Note 2: 'x' and 'y' labels will be truncated if the table is not going to fit to the screen, according to the value of getOption("width").

Value

A list of class CrossTable containing parameters used by the print.CrossTable method and the following components:

t: An n by m matrix containing table cell counts.

prop.row: An n by m matrix containing cell row proportions.

prop.col: An n by m matrix containing cell column proportions.

prop.tbl: An n by m matrix containing cell table proportions.

chisq: Results from the Chi-Square test. A list with class 'htest'. See chisq.test for details.

chisq.corr: Results from the corrected Chi-Square test. A list with class 'htest'. See chisq.test for details. ONLY included in the case of a 2 x 2 table.

fisher.ts: Results from the two-sided Fisher Exact test. A list with class 'htest'. See fisher.test for details. ONLY included if 'fisher' = TRUE.

fisher.lt: Results from the Fisher Exact test with HA = "less". A list with class 'htest'. See fisher.test for details. ONLY included if 'fisher' = TRUE and in the case of a 2 x 2 table.

fisher.gt: Results from the Fisher Exact test with HA = "greater". A list with class 'htest'. See fisher.test for details. ONLY included if 'fisher' = TRUE and in the case of a 2 x 2 table.

mcnemar: Results from the McNemar test. A list with class 'htest'. See mcnemar.test for details. ONLY included if 'mcnemar' = TRUE.

mcnemar.corr: Results from the corrected McNemar test. A list with class 'htest'. See mcnemar.test for details. ONLY included if 'mcnemar' = TRUE and in the case of a 2 x 2 table.

resid/sresid/asresid: Pearson Residuals (from chi-square tests).

Author(s)

Jakson Aquino has splited the function CrossTable (from the package gmodels) in two: CrossTable and print.CrossTable. The gmodels's function was developed by Marc Schwartz (original version posted to r-devel on Jul 27, 2002. SPSS format modifications added by Nitin Jain based upon code provided by Dirk Enzmann).
