Summary of a bma.bart object

Description

The bma.bart object is from the bma.bart function. The summary function is to calculate the estimates, standard deviation and credible sets of the mediation effects and relative effects.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'bma.bart'
summary(object, ..., plot = TRUE, RE = TRUE, 
                 quant = c(0.025, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 0.975), 
                 digit = 4, method = 3, trim = 0.05)

Arguments

object

a bma.bart object created by bma.bart.

...

other arguments passed to the print function.

plot

default is TRUE, if ture, draw a barplot of the mediation effects with credible sets.

RE

default is FALSE, if ture, show the inferences on relative mediation effects.

quant

show the quantiles defined by quant of the posterior distributions of mediation effects.

digit

the number of decimal digits to keep.

method

method=2 to show the results from the partial differences, method=3 to show the results from the G-computation, and method=4 for G-computation with non-parametric method (binary exposures only).

trim

the percentage of trims to calcuate the trimed average mediation effects. By default, trim=0.5.

Details

Show the posterior distribution of the estimated mediation effects.

Value

resultX

the mediation effect estimates using method X.

resultX.re

the relative effect estimates using method X.
