JNplots
JNplots provides visualization and interpretation of Johnson–Neyman technique outputs for two-way interactions in linear models as an R package.
Key Features:
- Johnson–Neyman visualization: Generates plots that display regions of significance and non-significance for interaction effects estimated via the Johnson–Neyman technique.
- Categorical moderators: Includes functions specifically for evaluating and visualizing two-way interactions when the moderator is categorical.
- Continuous moderators: Includes functions specifically for evaluating and visualizing two-way interactions when the moderator is continuous.
- Phylogenetic corrections: Supports phylogenetically informed models and allows specification of different phylogenetic correlation structures.
- Customizable graphical outputs: Produces adjustable plots to represent interaction terms and Johnson–Neyman regions with configurable aesthetics.
Scientific Applications:
- Ecology and evolution: Interpreting interaction effects in ecological and evolutionary datasets.
- Allometric studies: Assessing how size-related variables moderate relationships between traits.
- Macroevolutionary research: Evaluating interaction patterns in comparative evolutionary analyses that incorporate phylogeny.
- Experimental analyses: Visualizing and interpreting interaction effects from controlled experiments with moderators.
Methodology:
Applies the Johnson–Neyman technique to two-way interactions in linear models; provides functions for categorical and continuous moderators; implements phylogenetically informed models with selectable phylogenetic correlation structures.
