Tidying methods for a spicy_continuous_table

Standard broom::tidy() and broom::glance() interfaces for an object returned by table_continuous(). They re-shape the underlying long-format data into the two canonical broom views so the descriptive table can be consumed by any downstream tidyverse-stats pipeline.

Usage

# S3 method for class 'spicy_continuous_table'
tidy(x, ...)

# S3 method for class 'spicy_continuous_table'
glance(x, ...)

Arguments

x

A spicy_continuous_table returned by table_continuous().

...

Currently ignored. Present for compatibility with the broom::tidy() / broom::glance() generics.

Value

A tbl_df.

Details

tidy() returns one row per (variable x group) (or per variable when by is not used) with broom-conventional columns: outcome, label, group (when applicable), estimate (the empirical mean), std.error (sd / sqrt(n)), conf.low, conf.high (the mean confidence interval at ci_level), n, min, max, sd. The outcome column carries the variable name and label the human-readable label.

glance() returns one row per outcome with the omnibus group comparison (when by is used), the requested effect size and the balance diagnostic. Columns: outcome, label, test_type, statistic, df, df.residual, p.value, es_type, es_value, es_ci_lower, es_ci_upper, smd_type, smd_value, n_total. Without by, only outcome, label, and n_total are populated; the other columns are NA. The schema is fixed: smd_type / smd_value are present whether or not smd = TRUE, like every other comparison column here, and are NA when the table carries no standardized mean difference. They sit before n_total, so index this frame by NAME rather than by position.

glance.spicy_categorical_table() does not carry the SMD: each family documents its own broom contract, and the categorical one publishes the association measure alone. On a mixed balance table, read the categorical SMD from output = "long".
