************************ ** afex VERSION 0.5-x ** ************************ Changes in afex Version 0.5-x Released May 2013 Significant User Visible Changes and New Features o added argument factorize (default: TRUE) to aov.car and ez.glm: all variables are now factorized per default. (now it is necessary to set factorize=FALSE for ANCOVAs!) o added argument per.parameter to mixed() which allows to specify variables for which each parameter is tested (not only the overall effect). Can be useful to test for ordered factors. (only implemented for "Type 3" tests) o added more informative startup message (thanks to Robert Volcic and Lars Konieczny) o mixed, ez.glm and aov.car now check for correct contrasts and set factors to contr.sum if other contrasts are found (can be tunred off via check.contrasts argument). Resetting the default contrast to contr.treatment should therefore not interfere with afex. (this is not intensly tested, so please report anything) o mixed checks numeric variables if they are centered on 0 (and gives warning if not). Bugfixes o checks if observed variable is in the data and throws an error if not (nice.anova) ************************ ** afex VERSION 0.4-x ** ************************ Changes in afex Version 0.4-x Released February 2013 Significant User Visible Changes and New Features o added generalized and partial eta-squared effect sizes to nice.anova (this also included adding observed arguments to aov.car, ez.glm, nice.anova) o added new return arguments to aov.car and ez.glm (nice, lm, data). o changed default return value of aov.car and ez.glm to "nice" which now returns a nice ANOVA table (nice.anova) o mixed has method = "PB" for obtaining parametric bootstrapped p-values (e.g., for GLMMs) o added alternative argument to compare.2.vectors. o aov.car (and ez.glm) now give a warning if observations are missing on within-subject factors. (As before, cases with missing values are simply excluded from the analysis) o had to disable saving of the previous contrasts and resetting those after detaching afex due to CRAN policies (no assignment in global environment). Bugfixes o Bug when running mixed() inside a function and handing the data.frame over as an argument fixed (thanks, again, to Florent Duyme). See bugs/eval.scoping.bug.R o nice.anova did not work with a model with only one within-subjects factor. ************************ ** afex VERSION 0.3-x ** ************************ Changes in afex Version 0.3-x Released August/September 2012 Significant User Visible Changes and New Features o added function compare.2.vectors(). o Name of function univariate() changed to univ(), as a function with this name is part of package multcomp. This may leed to problems. Thanks to Florent Duyme for spotting this. o added return argument to aov.car() and ez.glm(). o added rather dubious Type 2 tests to mixed(). o aov.car checks if each id is only present in one cell of the between subjects design. Bugfixes o aov.car now uses do.call when calling lm() to avoid local variables in the call to lm() which could led to problems when working with the lm model. o mixed() now passes ... (further arguments to lmer) correctly. (Now mixed uses match.call and eval on the call instead of invoking lmer directly.) o corrected bug that was introduced by pbkrtest v3.2 when invoking the print method to an object of class mixed (again thanks to Florent Duyme for spotting this). o removed bug when factor levels of within-subject factors were non-legal names (solution uses make.names).
