Count the transparency indicators met by each article

Source: R/rt_summary.R
rt_score.Rd

Adds a column giving, for each article (row), how many of the transparency indicators were detected. This is the per-article transparency score used to describe how many practices an article adheres to.

Usage

rt_score(data, indicators = NULL, name = "n_indicators")

Arguments

data

A data frame with one row per article and indicator columns named as in [rt_all_pmc()].

indicators

Optional character vector of indicator columns to count. Defaults to the five openness practices present in `data` (conflicts of interest, funding, registration, data and code); novelty and replication are excluded unless requested explicitly, as they are not adherence practices.

name

Name of the count column to add (default `"n_indicators"`).

Value

`data` as a tibble with the integer count column added. Rows with no assessed indicators receive `NA` for the count. Tabulate it (for example with [table()] or `dplyr::count()`) for the distribution of the number of practices met.
