\title{Regression Analysis}

\description{
Abbreviation: \code{reg}, \code{reg_brief}

Provides a regression analysis with extensive output, including graphics, from a single, simple function call with many default settings, each of which can be re-specified. The computations are obtained from the \code{R} function \code{\link{lm}} and related \code{R} regression functions. The outputs of these functions are re-arranged and collated.

By default the data exists as a data frame with the default name of \code{d}, or specify explicitly with the \code{data} option.  Specify the model in the function call as an R \code{\link{formula}}, that is, for a basic model, the response variable followed by a tilde, followed by the list of predictor variables, each pair separated by a plus sign, such as \code{reg(Y ~ X1 + X2)}.

Output is generated into distinct segments by topic, organized and displayed in sequence by default. When the output is assigned to an object, such as \code{r} in \code{r <- reg(Y ~ X)}, the full or partial output can be accessed for later analysis and/or viewing. A primary such analysis is with \code{knitr} for dynamic report generation, run from R directly or from within \code{RStudio}. The input instructions to \code{knitr} are written comments and interpretation with embedded \code{R} code, called R~Markdown. Doing a \code{knitr} analysis is to "knit" these comments and subsequent output together so that the \code{R} output is embedded in the resulting document -- either html, pdf or Word -- by default with explanation and interpretation. Generate a complete R~Markdown file with filetype (\code{.Rmd}) from the \code{Rmd} option. Simply specify the option with a file name in quotes, then run the Regression analysis to create the markdown file. Open the newly created \code{.Rmd} file in \code{RStudio} and click the \code{knit} button to create a formatted document that consists of the statistical results plus interpretative comments. See the sections \code{arguments}, \code{value} and \code{examples} for more information.

\details{
OVERVIEW\cr
The purpose of \code{Regression} is to combine the following function calls into one, as well as provide ancillary analyses such as graphics, organizing output into tables and sorting to assist interpretation of the output, as well as generate R Markdown to run through \code{knitr}, such as with \code{RStudio}, to provide extensive interpretative output.

The basic analysis successively invokes several standard R functions beginning with the standard R function for estimation of a linear model, \code{\link{lm}}. The output of the analysis of \code{\link{lm}} is stored in the object \code{lm.out}, available for further analysis in the R environment upon completion of the \code{Regression} function. By default \code{reg} automatically provides the analyses from the standard R functions, \code{\link{summary}}, \code{\link{confint}} and \code{\link{anova}}, with some of the standard output modified and enhanced. The correlation matrix of the model variables is obtained with \code{\link{cor}} function. The residual analysis invokes \code{\link{fitted}}, \code{\link{resid}}, \code{\link{rstudent}}, and \code{\link{cooks.distance}} functions.  The option for prediction intervals calls the standard R function \code{\link{predict}}, once with the argument \code{interval="confidence"} and once with \code{interval="prediction"}. The \code{lessR} \code{\link{Histogram}} function with \code{stat="density"} provides the histogram and density plots for the residuals and the \code{\link{ScatterPlot}} function provides the scatter plots of the residuals with the fitted values and of the data for the one-predictor model. The \code{pairs} function provides the scatterplot matrix of all the variables in the model. Thomas Lumley's \code{leaps} package contains the \code{leaps} function that provides the analysis of the fit of all possible model subsets.

INPUT DATA FRAME\cr
The name \code{d} is by default provided by the \code{\link{Read}} function included in this package for reading and displaying information about the data in preparation for analysis. If all the variables in the model are not in the same data frame, the analysis will not complete.  Specify the name of the data frame for analysis with the \code{data} option if the name is not the default \code{d}.
       
The \code{filter} parameter subsets rows (cases) of the input data frame according to a logical expression. Use the standard R operators for logical statements as described in \code{\link{Logic}} such as \code{&} for and, \code{|} for or and \code{!} for not, and use the standard R relational operators as described in \code{\link{Comparison}} such as \code{==} for logical equality \code{!=} for not equals, and \code{>} for greater than. See the Examples.

TEXT OUTPUT\cr
The output is produced in pieces by topic (see \code{values} below), automatically collated by default in the final output. But the pieces are available for later reference if the output of the function is directed toward an object, such as \code{r} in \code{r <- reg(Y ~ X)}. This is especially useful if the pieces are accessed within \code{knitr} or individual pieces are displayed at the console.

The text output is organized to provide the most relevant information while at the same time minimizing the total amount of output, particularly for analyses with large numbers of observations (rows of data), the display of which is by default restricted to only the most interesting or representative observations in the analyses of the residuals and predicted values. Additional economy can be obtained by invoking the \code{brief=TRUE} option, or run \code{reg_brief}, which limits the analysis to just the basic analysis of the estimated coefficients and fit, and if \code{X1_new}, etc. are requested, the relevant rows of forecasted values.
.

R MARKDOWN\cr
An R~Markdown file ready for knitting and rendering into one of several formats can be obtained by specifying a value for \code{Rmd}. For the specified file name, the directory to which the file is written is displayed on the console text output, and the file type \code{.Rmd} is automatically appended to the specified name if it is not included in the specification. 

To access the same data file for the regression analysis from running \code{Regression} from the R console, and that accomplished by knitting the generated R~Markdown, first read the data into R with the lessR \code{\link{Read}} function. That function stores the name of the last data file read so that it can be accessed via R as the markdown is knit and then rendered into the specified format. The default rendering is to \code{HTML}, but other formats can be specified with \code{Rmd_format}. 

The output from \code{Rmd} is conceptually partitioned into four parts:  results, explanations of the results, interpretations of the results, documentation of the code, and the code itself. By default, all available output is generated but the flags \code{results}, \code{explain}, \code{interpret}, \code{document}, \code{code} can be set to \code{FALSE} to reduce the output. The options can be specified in a specific function call or set globally, such as with \code{options(explain=FALSE)}. Turning off all the flags leaves just the outline of the potential output and a bare minimum of results.

Both any existing variable labels and variable units are included in the output to the R~Markdown file. Any variable units set as a dollar, are set as USD dollars and cents in the output, displayed with a dollar sign.

The default analysis provides as text output to the console the model's parameter estimates and corresponding hypothesis tests and confidence intervals, goodness of fit indices, the ANOVA table, correlation matrix of the model's variables, analysis of residuals and influence as well as the confidence and prediction intervals for each observation in the model. Also provided, for multiple regression models, collinearity analysis of the predictor variables and adjusted R-squared for the corresponding models defined by each possible subset of the predictor variables.

The Markdown is produced from input files, one for each section of the rendered document. Find the default files and their names at:\\
\code{system.file("Rmd/reg/", package="lessR")}\\
The \code{Rmd_dir} option specifies a location for custom input files. The \code{Rmd_custom} parameter specifies which default files should be replaced by custom files, anywhere from any one of them to all eight. 


DECIMAL DIGITS\cr
The number of decimal digits displayed on the output is, by default, the maximum number of decimal digits for all the data values of the response variable. Or, this value can be explicitly specified with the \code{digits_d} parameter.

Visualizations\cr
Three default graphs are provided. When running \code{R} by itself, by default the graphs are written to separate graphics windows (which may overlap each other completely, in which case move the top graphics windows). Or, the \code{pdf} option may be invoked to save the graphs to a single pdf file called \code{regOut.pdf}. Within \code{RStudio} the graphs are successively written to the \code{Plots} window. Within \code{knitr} from \code{RStudio} the graphics will all appear by default at the beginning of the output. Or set to \code{graphics=FALSE}, and generate them individually with the accompanying function \code{\link{regPlot}} at the desired location within the file.

1. A histogram of the residuals includes the superimposed normal and general density plots from the \code{\link{Histogram}} function with \code{stat="density"} included in this \code{lessR} package.  The overlapping density plots, which both overlap the histogram, are filled with semi-transparent colors to enhance readability.

2. A scatterplot of the residuals with the fitted values is also provided from the \code{\link{ScatterPlot}} function included in this package. The point corresponding to the largest value of Cook's distance, regardless of its size, is plotted in red and labeled and the corresponding value of Cook's distance specified in the subtitle of the plot. Also by default all points with a Cook's distance value larger than 1.0 are plotted in red, a value that can be specified to any arbitrary value with the \code{cooks_cut} option.  This scatterplot also includes the \code{\link{lowess}} curve.

3. For models with a single predictor variable, a scatterplot of the data is produced, which also includes the regression line and corresponding confidence and prediction intervals. As with the density histogram plot of the residuals and the scatterplot of the fitted values and residuals, the scatterplot includes a colored background with grid lines. For multiple regression models, a scatterplot matrix of the variables in the model with the \code{\link{lowess}} best-fit line of each constituent scatterplot is produced. If the \code{scatter_coef} option is invoked, each scatterplot in the upper-diagonal of the correlation matrix is replaced with its correlation coefficient.

RESIDUAL ANALYSIS\cr
By default the residual analysis lists the data and fitted value for each observation as well as the residual, Studentized residual, Cook's distance and dffits, with the first 20 observations listed and sorted by Cook's distance.  The \code{res_sort} option provides for sorting by the Studentized residuals or not sorting at all.  The \code{n_res_rows} option provides for listing these rows of data and computed statistics for any specified number of observations (rows).  To turn off the analysis of residuals, specify \code{n_res_rows=0}.

PREDICTION INTERVALS\cr
The output for the confidence and prediction intervals includes a table with the data and fitted value for each observation, the lower and upper bounds for the confidence interval and the prediction interval, and the width of the prediction interval.  The observations are sorted by the lower bound of each prediction interval.  If there are 25 or more observations then the information for only the first three, the middle three and the last three observations is displayed. To turn off the analysis of prediction intervals, specify \code{n_pred_rows=0}, which also removes the corresponding intervals from the scatterplot produced with a model with exactly one predictor variable, yielding just the scatterplot and the regression line.

The data for the default analysis of the prediction intervals is for the values of the predictor variables for each observation, that is, for each row of the data. New values of the predictor variables can be specified for the calculation of the prediction intervals by providing values for the options \code{X1_new} for the values of the first listed predictor variable in the model, \code{X2_new} for the second listed predictor variable, and so forth for up to five predictor variables, and all predictor variables are numeric. To provide these values, use functions such as \code{\link{seq}} for specifying a sequence of values and \code{\link{c}} for specifying a vector of values. For multiple regression models, all combinations of the specified new values for all of the predictor variables are analyzed.

RELATIONS AMONG THE VARIABLES\cr
By default the correlation matrix of all the variables in the model is displayed, and, for multiple regression models, collinearity analysis is provided. Also provided are the first 50 models with the largest R squared adjusted from each possible model from an analysis of all possible subsets of the predictor variables.  This all subsets analysis requires the \code{leaps} function from the \code{leaps} package. These contributed packages are automatically loaded if available.  To turn off the all possible sets option, set \code{subsets=FALSE}.

RECODE PREDICTOR VARIABLES\cr
The \code{new_scale} parameter provides for recoding the values of the predictor variables according to several different transformations:  \code{"z"}, \code{"center"}, \code{"0to1"}, or \code{"robust"}. The latter is a robust version of classic standardization in which the mean is replaced by the median and the standard deviation by the IQR. All numeric predictor variables with more than two values are standardized. 

So any numeric variable with more than two values that is a categorical variable should be first converted to an R factor. If there are some numeric predictor variables that should not be standardized, such as an interaction term with centered variables that define the interaction, then the rescaling should be done separately, such as with base~R function \code{\link{scale}} or lessR  \code{\link{rescale}}. 

ANCOVA\cr
If there are two predictor variables, one categorical and one continuous, an analysis of covariance is performed. The resulting scatterplot is of the continuous response variable and predictor variable, at each level of the categorical variable. To address the unbalanced ANOVA design, the Type~II sums of squares are reported for each effect. The regression model for each level of the categorical variable are displayed.

A categorical variable is defined as either an R \code{factor} or a non-numeric variable. If numeric and categorical, then explicitly define the categorical variable as a factor. 

MODERATOR VARIABLE\cr
For two predictor models, one of the predictor variables can be entered into the analysis as a moderator variable with the \code{mod} parameter. By default the two predictor variables are centered, so their means become zero. Then a third variable is entered into the model, the interaction of the two centered variables, computed by multiplication of their respective values, row by row. The potential interaction is visually displayed by plotting response Y against predictor X, at three different values of continuous W: the mean and 1 standard deviation above and below the mean.

For predictor variable, X, second predictor as a potential moderator, W, and response Y, enter the following R input.\cr
\code{reg(Y ~ X + W, mod=W)}\cr
From this, with now centered variables X and W, the following multiple regression model is automatically defined.\cr
\eqn{\hat{Y} = b_0 + b_x X + b_w W + b_{xw} XW}\cr
From that model, the function sets the moderator variable W to each of the three constant values, \code{Wc}, and solves for the given value \code{Wc} to visually plot the potential interaction. 



INVOKED R OPTIONS\cr
The \code{\link{options}} function is called to turn off the stars for different significance levels (show.signif.stars=FALSE), to turn off scientific notation for the output (scipen=30), and to set the width of the text output at the console to 120 characters. The later option can be re-specified with the \code{text_width} option.  After \code{Regression} is finished with a normal termination, the options are re-set to their values before the \code{Regression} function began executing.

COLOR THEME\cr
A color theme for all the colors can be changed globally with \link{style}. Or, the color theme can be changed for all subsequent graphical analysis with the \code{lessR} function \code{\link{style}}. The default color theme is \code{lightbronze}, but a gray scale is available by removing the bronze background, such as with \code{style(window_fill="white")} or with \code{"gray"}. Other themes are available as explained in \code{\link{style}}.

VARIABLE LABELS\cr
If variable labels exist, then the corresponding variable label is by default listed as the label for the horizontal axis and on the text output. For more information, see \code{\link{Read}}.
}

\value{
The output can optionally be returned and saved into an \code{R} object, otherwise it simply appears at the console. The components of this object are redesigned in \code{lessR} version 3.3 into (a) pieces of text that form the readable output and (b) a variety of statistics. The readable output are character strings such as tables amenable for viewing and interpretation. The statistics are numerical values amenable for further analysis, such as to be referenced in a subsequent \code{knitr} document. The motivation of these two types of output is to facilitate \code{knitr} documents, as the name of each piece, preceded by the name of the saved object followed by a dollar sign, can be inserted into the \code{knitr} document (see \code{examples}).

Although not typically needed for analysis, if the regression output is assigned to an object named, for example, \code{r}, then the complete contents of the object can be viewed directly with the \code{\link{unclass}} function, here as \code{unclass(r)}. Invoking the \code{\link{class}} function on the saved object reveals a class of \code{out_all}. The class of each of the text pieces of output is \code{out}.
