Getting started

To begin, load the modelsummary package and download data from the Rdatasets archive:

library(modelsummary)
library(tinytable)

url <- 'https://vincentarelbundock.github.io/Rdatasets/csv/HistData/Guerry.csv'
dat <- read.csv(url) 
dat$Small <- dat$Pop1831 > median(dat$Pop1831)
dat <- dat[, 
  c("Donations", "Literacy", "Commerce", "Crime_pers", "Crime_prop", "Clergy", "Small")
]

Balance table (aka “Table 1”) with differences in means by subgroups:

Two variables and two statistics, nested in subgroups:

Model Summaries

Estimate a linear model and display the results:

mod <- lm(Donations ~ Crime_prop, data = dat)

modelsummary(mod)
tinytable_y0v09xaqt6b4ey6dqj7c
(1)
(Intercept) 9065.287
(1738.926)
Crime_prop -0.254
(0.207)
Num.Obs. 86
R2 0.018
R2 Adj. 0.006
AIC 1739.0
BIC 1746.4
Log.Lik. -866.516
F 1.505
RMSE 5749.29

Now estimate five regression models, display the results side-by-side, and use the group_tt() function from the tinytable package to add column labels:

library(tinytable)

models <- list(
    "I" = lm(Donations ~ Literacy + Clergy, data = dat),
    "II" = lm(Crime_pers ~ Literacy + Clergy, data = dat),
    "III" = lm(Crime_prop ~ Literacy + Clergy, data = dat),
    "IV" = glm(Crime_pers ~ Literacy + Commerce, family = poisson, data = dat),
    "V" = glm(Donations ~ Literacy + Commerce, family = poisson, data = dat)
)

modelsummary(models, stars = TRUE, gof_omit = "IC|Adj|F|RMSE|Log") |>
    group_tt(j = list("Linear" = 2:4, "Poisson" = 5:6))

(0.000) (0.000)
Num.Obs. 86 86 86 86 86
R2 0.020 0.065 0.152

Now, save it to a Microsoft Word document:

modelsummary(models, output = "table.docx")

And draw a coefficient plot:

ols <- models[1:3]
modelplot(ols, coef_omit = "Intercept")
