Use lapply for multiple regression with formula changing, not the dataset

Question

I have seen an example of list apply (lapply) that works nicely to take a list of data objects, and return a list of regression output, which we can pass to Stargazer for n

Answer 1

You can also use a dplyr & purrr approach, keep everything in a tibble, pull out what you want, when you need it. No difference in functionality from the lapply methods.

library(dplyr)
library(purrr)
library(MASS)
library(stargazer)

var_tibble <- tibble(vars = c("nox","crim"), data = list(Boston)) 

 analysis <- var_tibble %>% 
  mutate(models = map2(data, vars, ~lm(as.formula(paste0(.y, " ~ indus")), data = .x))) %>% 
  mutate(tables = map2(models, vars, ~stargazer(.x, type = "text", dep.var.labels.include = FALSE, column.labels = .y)))
