--- title: "Output codebook" output: rmarkdown::html_vignette: toc: true toc_depth: 2 vignette: > %\VignetteIndexEntry{Output codebook} %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8} --- ```{r, include = FALSE} knitr::opts_chunk$set(collapse = TRUE, comment = "#>") library(bayesqm) fit <- demo_fit(seed = 1) ``` Every column of every table the package reports, defined in one place. The examples run on the small demonstration fit, so the numbers here are illustrations, not findings. ## compute_loadings() ```{r} head(compute_loadings(fit), 3) ``` One row per participant. `f*_loading` is the posterior mean loading on the bounded correlation scale, between -1 and 1. `f*_lower` and `f*_upper` bound the credible interval at the fit's stored probability, 95 percent by default. `spread` is the posterior mean of the participant's person spread, the size of their systematic signal. Calling with `prob = 0.5` returns the same table with 50 percent intervals for nested plotting. ## compute_flags() ```{r} head(compute_flags(fit), 3) ``` One row per participant. `factor` is the participant's most probable factor, `sign` its pole, 1 for a defining sort and -1 for a mirrored one. `flag_prob` is the posterior probability that the participant defines that factor, both poles combined, and `unclassified_prob` the probability that no factor claims them. `selected` marks the flags the false-discovery rule reports at the chosen level. The table carries two attributes, `expected_false`, the expected number of false flags among the selected, and `phi`, the full probability matrix over every factor, pole, and the unclassified state. ## compute_zscores() ```{r} head(compute_zscores(fit), 3) ``` One row per statement. `f*_zsc` is the posterior mean statement score in z units under each factor, with `f*_lower` and `f*_upper` its interval. Scores are computed from the aligned draws, so they are comparable across factors. ## compute_factor_array() ```{r} head(compute_factor_array(fit), 3) ``` One row per statement. `f*_grid` is the reported grid column for the statement under each factor, quota-exact by construction, numbered as consecutive categories from 1 to the number of columns. Attribute `certainty` is the posterior probability of each placement, the shading in `plot_factor_array()`, and `footrule_disagreement` records how far the reported array sits from the unconstrained posterior ranking. ## compute_qdc() ```{r} qdc <- compute_qdc(fit) head(qdc, 3) ``` One row per statement. `f*_dist_prob` is the probability that the statement distinguishes that factor from every other, and `consensus_prob` the probability that all factors place it within one grid column of each other. `verdict` is the resulting three-way call, distinguishing with its factors named, consensus, or indeterminate. The `contrasts` attribute is the long table behind the verdicts: ```{r} head(attr(qdc, "contrasts"), 3) ``` One row per statement and factor pair. `median`, `lower`, and `upper` summarize the posterior score contrast. `exceed_prob` is the probability that the contrast exceeds the critical difference, `diff_column_prob` the probability that the two factors place the statement in different grid columns, `selected` the false-discovery selection at the first level, and `stars` the two-level marking, one star for a selected contrast and two when the stricter level is also cleared. The attributes `delta_kl`, `delta_kl99`, and `delta_grid` carry the two critical differences and the one-column consensus region. ## factor_characteristics() ```{r} factor_characteristics(fit) ``` One row per factor. `flagged` counts the selected flags, and `defining_modal`, `defining_mean`, `defining_lower`, and `defining_upper` summarize the posterior number of defining sorts. `score_spread` is the average posterior spread of the factor's statement scores, and `reliability` the mean replicate reliability of the factor's flagged participants, `NA` when no participant is flagged. The `score_correlations` attribute holds the posterior mean correlations between factor score columns. ## claims() ```{r} claims(fit, q = 0.25) ``` Four tables and a rule. `flags`, `distinguishing`, `consensus`, and `stars` list every claim the false-discovery rule selects at level `q`, each row carrying its posterior probability, and `expected_false` gives the expected number of false claims inside each family. ## check_fit() and check_persons() ```{r} check_fit(fit, draws = 20) ``` `agreement` compares the observed person-to-model agreement with its replicated reference and reports a two-sided probability. `paired` does the same for paired comparisons. `extra_factor` reports where the next unused eigenvalue falls among the model's replications, the percentile the choice-of-K rule reads. ```{r} pc <- check_persons(fit, draws = 10, mixes = 20) head(pc, 3) ``` One row per participant. `m` is agreement with the model's reconstruction, `w` agreement with their own mixed replicates, and `verdict` the resulting call, with `partner` naming the nearest other sorter when a shared viewpoint sits outside the model. ## crib_sheet() ```{r} head(crib_sheet(fit), 3) ``` One row per statement and factor. `p_top` and `p_bottom` are the probabilities of landing in the most extreme agree and disagree columns, `p_highest` and `p_lowest` of being that factor's single most and least agreed statement. These are the shortlists used when interpreting a factor. ## select_k() Run on a ladder of fits, `select_k()` returns `K`, the verdict, and a table with one row per candidate. `extra_factor` is the posterior-predictive percentile, `adequate` whether it sits in the band with no unspanned cluster, `factors_supported` how many factors earn at least two selected flags and one selected distinguishing statement, and `all_supported` whether every factor does. The `detail` element carries the same support information factor by factor, and the plot method draws the whole decision.
