‘exploratory’: an R Package

R build status CodeFactor Total Downloads

Exploratory Only: A Tool for Large-Scale Exploratory Analyses

Conduct numerous exploratory analyses in an instant with a point-and-click interface (a Shiny App on the local machine). Select variables in a data set to categorize them as possible independent, dependent, moderating, or mediating variables. Then run dozens (or hundreds) of analyses with one click to uncover any statistically significant relationships among variables.

This tool also allows conducting simple follow-up analyses (e.g., correlation and regression) with the point-and-click interface.

Warning

Any relationship among variables uncovered using this tool should be tested in follow-up studies. This tool is designed only to facilitate exploratory analyses and should NEVER be used for p-hacking (Simmons, Nelson, and Simonsohn, 2011; Ioannidis 2005).
