svySE 0.3.0

New features

• Added a second method for confidence intervals of proportions through the new ci_method argument of svySE_cfg():
  • "wald" (default): the existing interval, p +/- z * SE. Results are identical to previous versions.
  • "xlogit": the interval is built on the logit scale from the same Taylor-linearization estimate and standard error, using a t critical value with the design degrees of freedom, and transformed back to the 0-1 scale. Limits always stay within [0, 1] and intervals of complementary categories are complementary. Equivalent to survey::svyciprop(method = "xlogit").
• Added the ci_df argument to svySE_cfg() to set the degrees of freedom used by the "xlogit" interval. The default (NULL) uses the design degrees of freedom (survey::degf(): number of PSUs minus number of strata); Inf uses the normal quantile.
• print() methods for configurations and results now show the confidence interval method.

Notes

• Only the proportion limits (ci_l_pct, ci_u_pct) depend on ci_method. Estimates, standard errors, coefficients of variation, design effects, totals, counts, and the structure of results are unchanged.
• ci_method = "xlogit" is only available for estimator = "prop".
• Added unit tests for the new interval method, special cases (proportions equal to 0 or 1, zero standard errors, missing values, few degrees of freedom), complementarity, and regression of the existing method.
• Updated the README, vignette, documentation, and examples.

svySE 0.2.1

New features

• Added the na_rm argument to svySE_simple() for explicit handling of missing indicator values.
• Added optional weighted simple tables through the weight argument in svySE_simple().
• Added the output argument to svySE_simple() with the following modes: "unweighted", "weighted", and "both".
• Added expanded frequency and weighted percentage columns: exp_0, exp_pct_0, exp_1, exp_pct_1, exp_total, and exp_pct_total.
• Added new simple-table column profiles in svySE_cols_tab(): "unweighted", "expanded", "expanded_freq", "expanded_pct", "counts", and "percentages".
• Added automatic detection of available simple-table columns during XLSX export when cols_tab = NULL.

Improvements

• svySE_simple() now omits groups without valid indicator records when na_rm = TRUE.
• Added informative validation when missing indicator values are present and na_rm = FALSE.
• Improved the handling of indicator-specific grouping structures in simple tables.
• Groups are now determined after filtering valid records for each indicator.
• Added validation when requested XLSX columns are not available in the calculated simple-table object.
• Optimized survey-design construction by avoiding unnecessary PSU nesting when no cluster variable is supplied. This substantially reduces computation time for unclustered designs while preserving equivalent statistical results.
• Expanded unit tests for weighted frequencies, weighted percentages, output modes, missing values, column profiles, and XLSX export.
• Updated the README, vignette, documentation, and examples.

svySE 0.2.0

New features

• Added svySE_simple() for calculating unweighted frequencies and percentages without sampling weights or survey design variables.
• Added optional cluster support in svySE_calc().
• Added support for unstratified and unclustered survey designs.
• Added consolidated .xlsx export for multiple results from different data sources, weights, and function calls.
• Added the select argument in svySE_xlsx() to export only selected results.

Changes

• svySE_calc() now calculates sampling estimates and sampling errors only.
• Simple unweighted tables are now generated exclusively with svySE_simple().
• Removed redundant simple-table calculations from svySE_calc().
• svySE_xlsx() now accepts:
  • one svySE_result;
  • one svySE_simple_result;
  • a named list containing several result objects.
• Sampling error tables and simple tables are exported to separate .xlsx files.
• Updated DESCRIPTION according to CRAN formatting recommendations.
• Updated installation instructions to include the CRAN version.
