Network module: different results in jasp 0.14.1 and 0.15 #1434

Open CogniMath opened 3 years ago

CogniMath commented 3 years ago

JASP version: 0.15 and 0.14.1
OS name and version: Windows 10
Analysis: Network module Hello, I have the following problem as shown in the image. When I perform the same analysis in version 0.15 (left in the image) I obtain an error message; on the other hand, performing the same analysis in version 0.14.1 (right in the image) I obtain the network plots and results from the analysis. Thank you. Be safe

Hi @CogniMath thanks for reporting this issue! Would it be possible to share the .jasp file? Note that to upload jasp files you have to zip them first.

Hi, thank you for your message. I attach the jasp file. I selected network, then split by area, selected the network plot and the centrality plot, and finally moved the items q1 to q21 to the variables. These are the date from our research DatosNew2021v1.zip .

@CogniMath & @vandenman I tested with 0.18.3 The error message:

bootnet crashed with the following error message: Correlation matrix is not positive definite.

When I switch correlation method from "auto" to anything else, I get results. Is this intended with this kind of data? Is "auto" a sensible default, if it does not work always?

@CogniMath So I just found that this error about different results of the network-analysis across versions appeared in the past. Vandenman explains the details here https://github.com/jasp-stats/jasp-issues/issues/1338 This addresses your issue hopefully.

It does not explain however the question why the correlation method "auto" is default, when it does not always work.

@vandenman I guess it is to late to fix this for 0.19? A colleague of mine also stumbled upon this and had to switch to Npn instead of Auto.

The error message is now different with flatpak beta 0.19.2:

Summary of Network bootnet crashed with the following error message: some categories of variable `q13' are empty in group 1; frequencies are [30, 30, 17, 7, 0]

Is this intended behaviour now? The message seems to imply that I have to remove q13. When I do that, I am back to square one aka the original error message... so this seems only partly solved.
