Plots lavaan path model with DiagrammeR and graphviz

Usage

lavaanPlot(
  model,
  name = "plot",
  labels = NULL,
  graph_options = list(overlap = "true", fontsize = "10"),
  node_options = list(shape = "box"),
  edge_options = list(color = "black"),
  coefs = FALSE,
  sig = 1,
  stand = FALSE,
  covs = FALSE,
  stars = NULL,
  digits = 2,
  conf.int = F,
  edge_styles = F,
  ...
)

Arguments

model: A model fit object of class lavaan.
name: A string of the name of the plot.
labels: An optional named list of variable labels fit object of class lavaan.
graph_options: A named list of graph options for Diagrammer syntax. See for options https://graphviz.org/docs/graph/
node_options: A named list of node options for Diagrammer syntax. See for options https://graphviz.org/docs/nodes/
edge_options: A named list of edge options for Diagrammer syntax. See for options https://graphviz.org/docs/edges/
coefs: whether or not to include significant path coefficient values in diagram
sig: significance level for determining what significant paths are
stand: Should the coefficients being used be standardized coefficients
covs: Should model covariances be included in the diagram
stars: a character vector indicating which parameters should include significance stars be included for regression paths, latent paths, or covariances. Include which of the 3 you want ("regress", "latent", "covs"), default is none.
digits: A number indicating the desired number of digits for the coefficient values in the plot
conf.int: whether or not to include confidence intervals of path coefficients
edge_styles: Whether or not to depict non-significant coefficients with dashed paths
...: Additional arguments to be called to buildCall and buildPaths

Value

A Diagrammer plot of the path diagram for model

Examples

library(lavaan)
model <- "mpg ~ cyl + disp + hp
          qsec ~ disp + hp + wt"
fit <- sem(model, data = mtcars)
lavaanPlot(
  model = fit, node_options = list(shape = "box", fontname = "Helvetica"),
  edge_options = list(color = "grey"), coefs = FALSE
)
