This function formats objects created by mtable for inclusion into LaTeX files.

Usage

mtable_format_latex(x,
            useDcolumn=getOption("useDcolumn",TRUE),
            colspec=if(useDcolumn) 
                      paste("D{.}{",LaTeXdec,"}{",ddigits,"}",sep="") 
                    else "l",
            LaTeXdec=".",
            ddigits=min(3,getOption("digits")),
            useBooktabs=getOption("useBooktabs",TRUE),
            toprule=if(useBooktabs) "\\toprule" else "\\hline\\hline",
            midrule=if(useBooktabs) "\\midrule" else "\\hline",
            cmidrule=if(useBooktabs) "\\cmidrule" else "\\cline",
            bottomrule=if(useBooktabs) "\\bottomrule" else "\\hline\\hline",
            interaction.sep = " $\\times$ ",
            sdigits=min(1,ddigits),
            compact=FALSE,
            sumry.multicol=FALSE,
            escape.tex=getOption("toLatex.escape.tex",FALSE),
            signif.notes.type=getOption("toLatex.signif.notes.type","include"),
            signif.notes.spec=getOption("toLatex.signif.notes.spec","p{.5\\linewidth}"),
            ...
  )

Arguments

x

an object of class mtable

useDcolumn

should the dcolumn LaTeX package be used? If true, you will have to include \usepackage{dcolumn} into the preamble of your LaTeX document.

colspec

LaTeX table column format specifyer(s).

LaTeXdec

the decimal point in the final LaTeX output.

ddigits

alignment specification or digits after the decimal point.

useBooktabs

should the booktabs LaTeX package be used? If true, you will have to include \usepackage{booktabs} into the preamble of your LaTeX document.

toprule

appearance of the top border of the LaTeX tabular environment.

midrule

how are coefficients and summary statistics separated in the LaTeX tabular environment.

cmidrule

appearance of rules under section headings.

bottomrule

appearance of the bottom border of the LaTeX tabular environment.

interaction.sep

a character string that separates factors that are involved in an interaction effect

sdigits

integer; number of digits after decimal dot for summary statistics.

compact

logical; should the table be compact, without extra columns between multi-equation models?

sumry.multicol

logical, should summaries enclosed into \multicol commands?

escape.tex

logical, should symbols $, _, and ^ be escaped with backslashes?

signif.notes.type

character string; should be either "include","append", "drop", or "tnotes". If "append", (very simple) LaTeX code is appended that contains notes that relate significance symbols to p-values. If "include", the LaTeX table will include a (multi-column) cell with these notes. If "drop", notes will not be added. If "tnotes", the exported LaTeX table is wrapped in a threeparttable environment and the p-value notes are wrapped in a tablenotes environment. This requires the LaTeX package threeparttable in order to work.

signif.notes.spec

character string; specifies format of cells that include notes about p-values; relevant only if signif.notes.type="include"

...

further arguments, ignored.

Value

A character string with code suitable for inclusion into a LaTeX-file.
