I am getting the following error:

Error: Cannot compute effect size for a non-numeric vector.

When I try to calculate cohens_d (RStatix) in R Studio using this code:

> # Calculate (Cohen's D) effect size
> Cohen <- LST_Weather_dataset %>% 
+   group_by(Month, .add = FALSE) %>% 
+   cohens_d(
+     LST ~ TimePeriod, paired = TRUE
+     )

LST, Month and TimePeriod are all numeric:

> str(LST_Weather_dataset)
'data.frame':   456 obs. of  15 variables:
 $ Buffer        : int  100 200 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 100 ...
 $ Date          : Date, format: "0006-10-20" ...
 $ LST           : num  1.7 1.38 2.66 3.81 3.2 ...
 $ Month         : num  10 10 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ...
 $ Year          : int  2013 2013 2013 2014 2014 2014 2014 2014 2014 2014 ...
 $ JulianDay     : int  279 279 359 10 42 74 106 122 170 202 ...
 $ TimePeriod    : num  1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ...
...

The error persists if I remove group_by.

What am I missing?

Edit

  • `?cohens_d` (from rstatix) mentions that the group (RHS of formula) should be a factor – user20650 Jan 07 '22 at 14:54
  • I've tried using as.factor already - makes no difference where I use group_by or not - always get the error. – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 14:59
  • ... altough `cohens_d(mpg ~ cyl, data=mtcars)` works without cyl being a factor – user20650 Jan 07 '22 at 14:59
  • Paired = FALSE makes no difference – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:00
  • I'll try another package and see where I get... – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:01

    could you edit your question with enough of your data to reproduce the error please e.g. add `dput(LST_Weather_dataset[1:20, c("Month", "LST", "TimePeriod)])` (if that throws the same error) – user20650 Jan 07 '22 at 15:01

    Edited question to add data - 1:300 to get second value of TimePeriod in the sample. – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:09

    Thank you for the update. This code runs without error for me . `packageVersion("rstatix")` == ` ‘0.7.0’` – user20650 Jan 07 '22 at 15:10
  • Argh! :) So I've reset my environment, started from scratch, and still get the error. How could I chase this down? I have RStatix 0.7.0., too. – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:22
  • ```> is.numeric(LST_Weather_dataset$LST) [1] TRUE > is.numeric(LST_Weather_dataset$TimePeriod) [1] FALSE > is.numeric(LST_Weather_dataset$Month) [1] TRUE``` ``` – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:27
  • If I just load rstatix, the data, and call cohens_d in a completely new script it fails. – strangecharm Jan 07 '22 at 15:35

    good you found an answer strangecharm. It would still be good to chase down why this is happening.Can you try starting from a fresh R session e.g. don't load any previous workspaces or any other packages, then load only rstatix and run only the data and code in your edited question. I'm thinking there may be a clash somewhere – user20650 Jan 07 '22 at 16:53
  • With my limited experience with R that was what I was thinking, but I couldn't see where. That said, exploring the persistence of packages loaded this morning I've found out that I almost certainly didn't have a completely clean environment. I'll do what you suggest later on today. – strangecharm Jan 08 '22 at 11:10
  • Cleared R Studio environment with ```rm(list = ls(envir = globalenv()), envir = globalenv()); if(!is.null(dev.list())) dev.off(); gc(); cat("\014")``` Loaded `rstatix`, and checked loaded packages with ```library(rstatix) (.packages())``` Test ran without errors. – strangecharm Jan 08 '22 at 11:20
  • Going back to the original script, packages loaded when the error occurred are ```> (.packages()) [1] "ez" "forcats" "stringr" "dplyr" "purrr" "readr" "tidyr" "tibble" "tidyverse" "ggpubr" [11] "ggplot2" "rstatix" "stats" "graphics" "grDevices" "utils" "datasets" "methods" "base" ```. How do you go about finding the clash? Trial and error? I guess then flag it up on Github as a bug? – strangecharm Jan 08 '22 at 11:26
  • rstatix imports a lot of packages; see https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rstatix/index.html so you would expect to see this list. These will in turn have dependencies. If you add the results of `sessionInfo()` to your question, I can compare package version numbers. (ps to open a fresh R session, you can use `R --vanilla` at the terminal but not sure how to do it using a gui. When you start R normally, you will get a message if loading a previous workspace. You can remove this by removing .Rdata and .rds files from your working directory. – user20650 Jan 08 '22 at 12:23
  • Thanks for the tips. I'll post the `sessionInfo()` in the morning. – strangecharm Jan 08 '22 at 20:57
  • Too long for comment - additional answer below. – strangecharm Jan 10 '22 at 07:32
  • strangecharm; so it now works? – user20650 Jan 10 '22 at 15:45
  • Not sure - I can't remember if I previously used the sample or the whole dataset. I'll go back and look tomorrow (maybe Wednesday - depends on childcare). – strangecharm Jan 10 '22 at 19:27
  • ... no need . Seems likely was a (perhaps temporary) local issue, rather than a code /programming problem. – user20650 Jan 10 '22 at 19:29
  • If that turns out not to be the case I'll update here. Thanks for the guidance. ATB. – strangecharm Jan 11 '22 at 07:42

Trying to chase down the error in rstatix - per user20650's comment above.

New session (via menu in R Studio) - dput() code above used to create test data.frame, rstatix loaded using library(rstatix), then test run with

Cohen <- test %>% 
    group_by(TimePeriod) %>%
    cohens_d(LST ~ Month, paired = FALSE)

Test runs successfully:

Grouping the data using group_by made no difference as | Subject() does this within the function.
