Checks: 6 1

Knit directory: mcfa-para-est/

This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.6.1). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


The R Markdown is untracked by Git. To know which version of the R Markdown file created these results, you’ll want to first commit it to the Git repo. If you’re still working on the analysis, you can ignore this warning. When you’re finished, you can run wflow_publish to commit the R Markdown file and build the HTML.

Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.

The command set.seed(20190614) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.

Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.

Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.

The results in this page were generated with repository version 95dd5a6. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:

General Descrition

On this page, we are investigating the correlation among parameter estimates between estimation methods. We do this by

  1. Subsetting the data to the parameter of interest
  2. Reshaping the data to wide
  3. Compute the correlation
  4. Compute the proportion of admissible cases by comparison (i.e., proportion of replications that were used to compute correlation). This gives us an indication of how convergence varied across estimation methods
  5. Reshape to long data for plotting
  6. Plot correlation estimates in boxplots with points overlayed
