Variable labels in column `effect` of `apa_results_table` #157

Open mariusbarth opened 6 years ago

mariusbarth commented 6 years ago

I was wondering whether it is a good idea to replace the terms in a regression table, etc. by the respective variable labels, if present.

crsh commented 6 years ago

You tell me. ;)

It sounds like a good idea but it would work well only with reasonably short labels. Especially higher order interactions would otherwise become unwieldy in ANOVA tables, no?

Same line of thought. Maybe we could keep this optional, maybe via a parameter or by supplying a neat function replacing the effect names or by calling this neat function only from within apa_table. I can hear "rabbit hole" ringing in my ears.
