Tidycomm provides convenience functions for common tasks in communication research. All functions follow the style and syntax of the tidyverse.
Currently, tidycomm includes functions for various methods of univariate and bivariate data description and analysis, data modification, and intercoder reliability tests.
Install tidycomm from CRAN:
Or install the most recent development version of tidycomm with:
