CAUSE's results #38

[giuliapontali]

Can you just confirm if the causal model means causality and no pleiotropy? Or causality and yes pleiotropy? Is it possible to extract theelpd for each model?

I also have another question about the results. Why doing summary(res, ci_size=0.95) I get:

       Length Class          Mode
sharing  8     cause_post     list
causal    8     cause_post     list
elpd      5     cause_elpd     list
loos      3     -none-         list
data    13     cause_data_fit list
sigma_g  1     -none-         numeric
qalpha   1     -none-         numeric
qbeta    1     -none-         numeric

Thanks

The causal model includes a causal effect and allows for a confounder. CAUSE doesn't try to test if there is a confounder or not. I left a longer comment about this on your other issue.

The elpd is stored in res$elpd (see https://jean997.github.io/cause/ldl_cad.html#Step_5:_Look_at_Results)

It sounds like you don't have the cause package loaded when you run the summary command. Try making sure the library is loaded first.
