CoTiMA 1.0.7
- Join plot output filenames to their directory without relying on a
trailing separator.
CoTiMA 1.0.6
- Normalize temporary directory paths in the plotting test for
Windows.
CoTiMA 1.0.5
- Remove the obsolete variational Bayes setting from Stan defaults and
fit calls.
- Explicitly select Stan when the installed ctsem fitting API accepts
a backend.
- Omit historical optimizer defaults when ctsem has retired them.
CoTiMA 1.0.4
ctmaTables() now accepts fontSize = 10
(points) for titles, headers, cells and notes in Word, XML, TeX and PDF
exports.
Regular Stan table
compatibility (2026-10-29)
- Reads joint population DRIFT arrays from regular optimized and
sampled Stan fits.
- Reconstructs missing optimized-fit caches from retained raw draws
through the fitted Stan program, with Kalman filtering disabled and no
model refitting.
- Correctly labels native ML, MAP and Bayesian fits from their direct
args fields.
- Retains native-summary precision for four-decimal tables, avoids
partial cache name matching, and preserves a wrapper’s CT representation
during DT refresh.
- Validated against regular ctsem 3.11.1 and an existing 2000-draw
CoTiMA benchmark.
Table presentation
options (2026-10-29)
- layout selects portrait (long, default) or landscape (wide) pages
consistently across Word, XML, TeX and PDF exports. Oversized tables
continue in column panels.
- sortBy groups ctmaInit estimates by study (default) or by
parameter.
- rowLayout keeps one parameter per row (default), combines DRIFT
entries, or combines all selected parameters with grouped
parameter/statistic headers.
- Numeric long-format values and safe staged output publication are
preserved.
Saved-fit table summaries
(2026-10-29)
- ctmaTables defaults to four display decimals.
- Missing statistics and DT uncertainty can be regenerated from saved
native fits with summary(timeinterval=lag), with one consent for all
primary studies.
- recomputeSummary=“yes” permits batch use; no models are refitted and
raw point estimates are never treated as uncertainty draws.
Table
selectors and primary-study summaries (2026-10-28)
- Accepts bare, case-insensitive matrix families such as
parameters=c(drift, diffusion). Quoted selectors and character-vector
variables remain supported.
- Presents every primary study from a ctmaInit aggregate summary with
original study labels, retained uncertainty and explicit aggregate
fit-statistic notes; no refitting.
- Preserves unavailable statistics as unavailable and aligns
study/parameter text columns in Word and TeX exports.
APA tables (2026-10-28)
- Adds ctmaTables() with checked summary agreement, named/matrix
parameter selection, source-aware statistics, interactive selection and
APA-style Word/XML/TeX/PDF exports.
- Adds joint-draw DT effects at selected fitted-time lags and
coordinate-aligned model comparisons.
- Exports are staged; existing outputs require explicit overwrite.
Unsupported summaries and unavailable statistics fail explicitly rather
than fabricating transformed values.
- Documents optional Word/PDF dependencies and the limits of legacy
summary provenance.
Power analysis
refactoring (2026-10-28)
- Separates validation, invariant fitting/loading, matrix extraction,
implied moments, regression effects, power probabilities, integer
sample-size search and result assembly.
- Verifies unrestricted Gaussian regression eligibility for direct
covariance calculations. Supports explicit restricted Gaussian
regression syntax through a lavaan fallback, with console and stored
summary notes identifying the calculation route.
- Corrects negative-effect p-values, two-wave and higher-dimensional
calculations, lag bounds, reduced hypotheses, root boundaries and tied
optimal-lag selection.
- Fast default power includes both rejection tails. useMBESS=TRUE
retains the legacy probability convention. Missing post-hoc powers stay
NA instead of becoming zero.
- Restores original time units from invariant-fit scaling metadata.
Reduced-fit caches now validate covariance/model metadata and are reused
across requested power levels.
Plotting corrections
(2026-10-28)
- Correct forest pooled confidence intervals and funnel confidence
limits.
- Correct time-range indexing, axis positions, power-only plots and
fractional-lag selection.
- Handle multiple fits, legacy example objects and per-fit
moderator/lag mappings.
- Export uniquely named PNG files in the requested directory,
including headless sessions.
