Dear R experts,
I am posting this question on behalf of a Japanese R user who wants to know how to change the siginificant codes default. As you know, R's default significant codes are:
Signif. codes: 0 `***' 0.001 `**' 0.01 `*' 0.05 `.' 0.1 ` ' 1
But he says that it is usual in economics to give codes such as
`***' for 0.01, `**' for 0.05 and `*' for 0.10
I don't know if this is true (common) or not, but what I as well as he are puzzled is that, apparently, there is no part in the code, say that of summary.lm, which produces these significant codes as well as the annotation above. A quick search of "rking" using keywords "significant codes star" gave me no information.
Thanks in advance.
For example, calling summary(lmObject) dispatches on method summary.lm() hwich creates an object of class "summary.lm".
The latter is printed by method print.summary.lm() which calls printCoefmat().
The stars are hard-coded there, and I don't think anybody is going to change that. I suggest to turn of the printing of siginificant codes by specifying
print(summary(.....), signif.stars = FALSE)
or by setting the corresponding option().

I use R 2.0.0 on Debian GNU Linux (don't know his).
