Build a bias-interaction plot-data bundle (FACETS Table 13: ranked bias list)
Source:R/api-reports.R
bias_interaction_report.RdBundles the ranked flagged-cells view of a bias-interaction run for downstream printing and plotting. The three sibling reports in this family are intentionally distinct:
bias_interaction_report()(this one) = FACETS Table 13: a ranked list of interaction cells witht,bias size, and screening tail area – use when reviewing which(facet_a, facet_b)cells deserve follow-up.bias_iteration_report()= iteration history / convergence trace for the bias recalibration (FACETS Table 9 territory) – use when diagnosing whether the bias run itself stabilised.bias_pairwise_report()= pairwise contrast table for a target facet (FACETS Table 14 territory) – use when comparing levels within a facet while controlling for the other.
Usage
bias_interaction_report(
x,
diagnostics = NULL,
facet_a = NULL,
facet_b = NULL,
interaction_facets = NULL,
max_abs = 10,
omit_extreme = TRUE,
max_iter = 4,
tol = 0.001,
top_n = 50,
abs_t_warn = 2,
abs_bias_warn = 0.5,
p_max = 0.05,
sort_by = c("abs_t", "abs_bias", "prob")
)Arguments
- x
Output from
estimate_bias()orfit_mfrm().- diagnostics
Optional output from
diagnose_mfrm()(used whenxis fit).- facet_a
First facet name (required when
xis fit andinteraction_facetsis not supplied).- facet_b
Second facet name (required when
xis fit andinteraction_facetsis not supplied).- interaction_facets
Character vector of two or more facets.
- max_abs
Bound for absolute bias size when estimating from fit.
- omit_extreme
Omit extreme-only elements when estimating from fit.
- max_iter
Iteration cap for bias estimation when
xis fit.- tol
Convergence tolerance for bias estimation when
xis fit.- top_n
Maximum number of ranked rows to keep.
- abs_t_warn
Warning cutoff for absolute t statistics.
- abs_bias_warn
Warning cutoff for absolute bias size.
- p_max
Warning cutoff for p-values.
- sort_by
Ranking key:
"abs_t","abs_bias", or"prob".
Details
Preferred bundle API for interaction-bias diagnostics. The function can:
use a precomputed bias object from
estimate_bias(), orestimate internally from
mfrm_fit+ facet specification.
Interpreting output
Focus on ranked rows where multiple screening criteria converge:
large absolute t statistic
large absolute bias size
small screening tail area
The bundle is optimized for downstream summary() and
plot_bias_interaction() views.
Typical workflow
Run
estimate_bias()(or providemfrm_fithere).Build
bias_interaction_report(...).Review
summary(out)and visualize withplot_bias_interaction().
Examples
# \donttest{
toy <- load_mfrmr_data("example_bias")
fit <- fit_mfrm(toy, "Person", c("Rater", "Criterion"), "Score", method = "JML", maxit = 30)
#> Warning: Optimization convergence review did not produce an inference-ready numerical solution (code = 1, status = iteration_limit). Optimizer reached the iteration limit before the terminal gradient became small enough for review-only acceptance. Inspect the model specification, data support, and starting values. Do not interpret estimates until the review is resolved.
diag <- diagnose_mfrm(fit, residual_pca = "none")
bias <- estimate_bias(fit, diag, facet_a = "Rater", facet_b = "Criterion", max_iter = 2)
out <- bias_interaction_report(bias, top_n = 10)
