[R] How to plot marginal effects (MEM) in R?

[Faradj Koliev]

Dear all, 

I have two logistic regression models:


   • model <- glm(Y ~ X1+X2+X3+X4, data = data, family = "binomial")



   • modelInteraction <- glm(Y ~ X1+X2+X3+X4+X1*X4, data = data, family = "binomial")

To calculate the marginal effects (MEM approach) for these models, I used the `mfx` package:


   • a<- logitmfx(model, data=data, atmean=TRUE)



    •b<- logitmfx(modelInteraction, data=data, atmean=TRUE)


What I want to do now is 1) plot all the results for "model" and 2) show the result just for two variables: X1 and X2. 
3) I also want to plot the interaction term in ”modelInteraction”.


I have been looking around for the solutions but haven't been able to find any. I would appreciate any suggestions. 

A reproducible sample:
