How to output several variables in the same row using stargazer in R

问题

I would like to output the interaction terms from several regressions in the same row and call it "Interaction". So far what I have is that the interaction terms show up in two different rows called "Interaction" (see code below).

This question has already been asked here, but my score isn't high enough yet to upvote it or comment on it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28859569/several-coefficients-in-one-line.

library("stargazer")
stargazer(attitude)
stargazer(attitude, summary=FALSE)
# 2 OLS models with Interactions
linear.1 <- lm(rating ~ complaints + privileges + complaints*privileges
           , data=attitude)
linear.2 <- lm(rating ~ complaints + learning + complaints*learning, data=attitude)
stargazer(linear.1, linear.2, title="Regression Results", type="text", 
      covariate.labels=c("Complaints", "Privileges", "Interaction", "Learning", "Interaction"))

Thank you for your help.

I think this is not natively supported because it is not a good idea. You're asking to obfuscate the meaning of the numbers in your table, which won't help your reader.

That caveat now stated, you can do this by modifying the contents of the lm objects:

# copy objects just for demonstration
m1 <- linear.1
m2 <- linear.2

# see names of coefficients
names(m1$coefficients)
# [1] "(Intercept)"           "complaints"            "privileges"            "complaints:privileges"
names(m2$coefficients)
# [1] "(Intercept)"         "complaints"          "learning"            "complaints:learning"

# replace names
names(m1$coefficients)[names(m1$coefficients) == "complaints:privileges"] <- "interaction"
names(m2$coefficients)[names(m2$coefficients) == "complaints:learning"] <- "interaction"

The result:

> stargazer(m1, m2, title="Regression Results", type="text")

In case anyone is wondering, I needed this for a different purpose for the felm package. The following code is required for that:

reg ~ felm(....)
rownames(reg$coefficients)[rownames(reg$coefficients)=='oldname']<-'newname'
rownames(reg$beta)[rownames(reg$beta)=='oldname']<-'newname'
