summary.SimpleTable
summarizes a
SimpleTable
object by printing the mode, mean, standard
deviation, and percent
% highest density region of the prima
facie and sensitivity analysis posterior densities. Large-sample
nonparametric bounds for the estimand of interest are also
reported. Summaries of the prior distribution are also reported in
situations where these summaries are numerically stable.
summary.SimpleTable(object, estimand = c("ATE", "ATT", "ATC", "RR", "RRT", "RRC", "logRR", "logRRT", "logRRC"), percent = 95, ...)
object |
An object of class SimpleTable produced by
analyze2x2 or analyze2x2xK that is to be
summarized. |
estimand |
The causal estimand of interest. Options include:
ATE (average treatment effect),
ATT (average treatment effect on the treated),
ATC (average treatment effect on the controls),
RR (relative risk),
RRT (relative risk on the treated),
RRC (relative risk on the controls),
logRR (log relative risk),
logRRT (log relative risk on the treated), and
logRRC (log relative risk on the controls).
|
percent |
A number between 0 and 100 (exclusive) giving the size of the highest posterior density regions to be calculated and printed. Default value is 95. |
