Hi, I am guessing this is not what you meant by "on the fly", but I think it will be by far the easiest way. Plotting an effects object is a high level plot with a lot of defaults and automation built in to make your life simple. The cost is that it is less flexible---you work its way, not vice versa. If you want the factor named high, just label it that way to begin with. If you think it makes the graphs more interpretable/meaningful, then it will make model summaries, etc. better also. Worst case, you fit the model twice (one with fancy names, one with numbers), which unless you have a massive dataset will not take long or be an onerous burden anyways. Here's how you can include labels directly in cut():
Cowles$ex2 <- cut(Cowles$extraversion, 3, c("low", "medium", "high")) mod.cowles <- glm(volunteer ~ sex+neuroticism*ex2,data=Cowles, family=binomial) eff.cowles <- allEffects(mod.cowles) plot(eff.cowles, 'neuroticism:ex2',factor.names=F) Cheers, Josh On Tue, Jan 11, 2011 at 7:21 PM, Wincent <ronggui.hu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear r heper, > > How can I change the strip text, for example (16,23] in the following > example, to other more informative text such as "high level" on the > fly? > > library(effects) > Cowles$ex2 <- cut(Cowles$extraversion,3) > mod.cowles <- glm(volunteer ~ sex+neuroticism*ex2,data=Cowles, > family=binomial) > eff.cowles <- allEffects(mod.cowles) > plot(eff.cowles, 'neuroticism:ex2',factor.names=F) > > Thank you. > > Ronggui > > > -- > Wincent Ronggui HUANG (Ph.D.) > City University of Hong Kong > http://asrr.r-forge.r-project.org/rghuang.html > > ______________________________________________ > R-help@r-project.org mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. > -- Joshua Wiley Ph.D. Student, Health Psychology University of California, Los Angeles http://www.joshuawiley.com/ ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
