Usage

chisq.posthoc.test(x, method = "bonferroni", round = 4, alpha = 0.05,
  ...)

Arguments

x	A matrix passed on to the chisq.test function.
method	The p adjustment method to be used. This is passed on to the p.adjust function.
round	Number of digits to round the p.value to. Defaults to 4.
alpha	The alpha value to the compare the p values to. Defaults to 0.05.
...	Additional arguments passed on to the chisq.test function.

Value

Examples

# Data from Agresti(2007) p.39
M <- as.table(rbind(c(762, 327, 468), c(484, 239, 477)))
dimnames(M) <- list(gender = c("F", "M"),
                   party = c("Democrat","Independent", "Republican"))

# Pass data matrix to chisq.posthoc.test function
chisq.posthoc.test(M, alpha = 0.05)
