blr_plot_dfbetas_panel function

DFBETAs panel

Panel of plots to detect influential observations using DFBETAs.

blr_plot_dfbetas_panel(model, print_plot = TRUE)

Arguments

• model: An object of class glm.
• print_plot: logical; if TRUE, prints the plot else returns a plot object.

Returns

list; blr_dfbetas_panel returns a list of tibbles (for intercept and each predictor) with the observation number and DFBETA of observations that exceed the threshold for classifying an observation as an outlier/influential observation.

Details

DFBETA measures the difference in each parameter estimate with and without the influential point. There is a DFBETA for each data point i.e if there are n observations and k variables, there will be $n * k$ DFBETAs. In general, large values of DFBETAS indicate observations that are influential in estimating a given parameter. Belsley, Kuh, and Welsch recommend 2 as a general cutoff value to indicate influential observations and $2/\sqrt(n)$ as a size-adjusted cutoff.

Examples

## Not run:

model <- glm(honcomp ~ female + read + science, data = hsb2,
family = binomial(link = 'logit'))

blr_plot_dfbetas_panel(model)
## End(Not run)
