digits

Number of digits used for numeric summaries.

top_n

Value

An object of class summary.apa_table.

Details

Compact summary helper for QA of table payloads before manuscript export.

Interpreting output

  • overview: table size/composition and missingness.

  • numeric_profile: quick distribution summary of numeric columns.

  • caption/note: text metadata readiness.

Typical workflow

  1. Build table with apa_table().

  2. Run summary(tbl) and inspect overview.

  3. Use plot.apa_table() for quick numeric checks if needed.
