This package provides a toolbox to handle and represent trophic networks in space or time across aggregation levels. This package contains a layout algorithm specifically designed for trophic networks, using dimension reduction on a diffusion graph kernel and trophic levels. Importantly, this package provides a layout method applicable for large trophic networks.

Mouse-tracking, the analysis of mouse movements in computerized experiments, is a method that is becoming increasingly popular in the cognitive sciences. The mousetrap package offers functions for importing, preprocessing, analyzing, aggregating, and visualizing mouse-tracking data. An introduction into mouse-tracking analyses using mousetrap can be found in Wulff, Kieslich, Henninger, Haslbeck, & Schulte-Mecklenbeck (2023) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/v685r> (preprint: <https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/v685r>).

This package implements the Maki (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006> cointegration test that allows for an unknown number of structural breaks. The test detects cointegration relationships in the presence of up to five structural breaks in the intercept and/or slope coefficients. Four different model specifications are supported: level shifts, level shifts with trend, regime shifts, and trend with regime shifts. The method is described in Maki (2012) "Tests for cointegration allowing for an unknown number of breaks" <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006>.

Monte Carlo simulation is a stochastic method computing trajectories of photons in media. Surface backscattering is performing calculations in semi-infinite media and summarizing photon flux leaving the surface. This simulation is modeling the optical measurement of diffuse reflectance using an incident light beam. The semi-infinite media is considered to have flat surface. Media, typically biological tissue, is described by four optical parameters: absorption coefficient, scattering coefficient, anisotropy factor, refractive index. The media is assumed to be homogeneous. Computational parameters of the simulation include: number of photons, radius of incident light beam, lowest photon energy threshold, intensity profile (halo) radius, spatial resolution of intensity profile. You can find more information and validation in the Open Access paper. Laszlo Baranyai (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.mex.2020.100958>.

Causal moderated mediation analysis using the methods proposed by Qin and Wang (2023) <doi:10.3758/s13428-023-02095-4>. Causal moderated mediation analysis is crucial for investigating how, for whom, and where a treatment is effective by assessing the heterogeneity of mediation mechanism across individuals and contexts. This package enables researchers to estimate and test the conditional and moderated mediation effects, assess their sensitivity to unmeasured pre-treatment confounding, and visualize the results. The package is built based on the quasi-Bayesian Monte Carlo method, because it has relatively better performance at small sample sizes, and its running speed is the fastest. The package is applicable to a treatment of any scale, a binary or continuous mediator, a binary or continuous outcome, and one or more moderators of any scale.

Interaction between a genetic variant (e.g., a single nucleotide polymorphism) and an environmental variable (e.g., physical activity) can have a shared effect on multiple phenotypes (e.g., blood lipids). We implement a two-step method to test for an overall interaction effect on multiple phenotypes. In first step, the method tests for an overall marginal genetic association between the genetic variant and the multivariate phenotype. The genetic variants which show an evidence of marginal overall genetic effect in the first step are prioritized while testing for an overall gene-environment interaction effect in the second step. Methodology is available from: A Majumdar, KS Burch, T Haldar, S Sankararaman, B Pasaniuc, WJ Gauderman, JS Witte (2020) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btaa1083>.
