statsmodels.discrete.count_model.ZeroInflatedGeneralizedPoissonResults.t_test_pairwise

ZeroInflatedGeneralizedPoissonResults.t_test_pairwise(term_name, method='hs', alpha=0.05, factor_labels=None)

perform pairwise t_test with multiple testing corrected p-values

This uses the formula design_info encoding contrast matrix and should work for all encodings of a main effect.

Parameters:
  • result (result instance) – The results of an estimated model with a categorical main effect.
  • term_name (str) – name of the term for which pairwise comparisons are computed. Term names for categorical effects are created by patsy and correspond to the main part of the exog names.
  • method (str or list of strings) – multiple testing p-value correction, default is ‘hs’, see stats.multipletesting
  • alpha (float) – significance level for multiple testing reject decision.
  • factor_labels (None, list of str) – Labels for the factor levels used for pairwise labels. If not provided, then the labels from the formula design_info are used.
Returns:

results – The results are stored as attributes, the main attributes are the following two. Other attributes are added for debugging purposes or as background information.

  • result_frame : pandas DataFrame with t_test results and multiple testing corrected p-values.
  • contrasts : matrix of constraints of the null hypothesis in the t_test.
Return type:

instance of a simple Results class

Notes

Status: experimental. Currently only checked for treatment coding with and without specified reference level.

Currently there are no multiple testing corrected confidence intervals available.

Examples

>>> res = ols("np.log(Days+1) ~ C(Weight) + C(Duration)", data).fit()
>>> pw = res.t_test_pairwise("C(Weight)")
>>> pw.result_frame
