Tables? #91

Closed LukasWallrich closed 1 month ago

LukasWallrich commented 7 months ago

We are currently doing an error-detection hackathon (related to the ERROR project) ... and were wondering whether you'd be interested in having statcheck extended to (HMTL) tables ... or whether that would work better as a separate extension package? Would be great to hear your thoughts ...

@LukasWallrich Could you point to a couple examples? Is there a standard APA format for statistical test results in tables?

MicheleNuijten commented 1 month ago

It would be great to also be able to check tables, but unfortunately, the formatting is usually difficult to parse, and/or the information in the table is incomplete (e.g., degrees of freedom are not mentioned, or only in a footnote etc.). There is currently a colleague of mine looking into this, but I fear that most tables will be too difficult to parse & check automatically.
