circumplex 1.0.0

CRAN release: 2024-10-28

Breaking changes

  • Nearly all code rewritten/refactored to streamline and reduce dependencies.

  • Removed support for non-standard evaluation

  • The contrast argument to ssm_plot() is now TRUE or FALSE instead of “none”, “model”, or “test”. Model contrasts were removed and TRUE yields test contrasts.

  • Many arguments renamed (e.g., .data to data, .ssm_object to ssm_object, xy to drop_xy)

  • Removed ssm_plot() function in favor of ssm_plot_circle(), ssm_plot_curve(), and ssm_plot_contrast().

  • Renamed standardize() function to norm_standardize()

New features

  • Added ssm_plot_curve()

  • Added CAIS and IEI instrument data

  • Added profile scores, results, and plotting to models with contrasts

  • Added PANO() function for conveniently creating scale names

  • All internal and external data are now data frames instead of tibbles

  • Rewrote all vignettes to use the updated functions, arguments, etc.

Minor improvements and fixes

  • Harmonized the results and scores fields in the output of ssm_analyze()

  • Added many unit tests, increasing the package to 100% code coverage

  • Added many assertions to check for invalid input arguments

  • Harmonized the tidying function arguments (e.g., prefix, suffix, append)

  • Added print methods for degree and radian classes

  • Replace internal non-standard evaluation with .data references

  • Minor visual improvements to print and summary methods for ssm_objects
