我正在尝试使用emmeans来测试"对比度的对比度"；自定义正交对比度应用于零膨胀负二项模型。研究设计有4组(研究组：grp1、grp2、grp3、grp4(，每组在3个时间点(时间：时间1、时间2、时间3(进行评估。
有了下面的代码，我可以非常接近但不完全是我想要的。出现的对比度用诸如grp1/grp2、grp1/grp3、…、，。。。，grp3/grp4("越高越低"；参见下面代码的输出(。
有一种方法可以将这些比率翻转为grp2/grp1，grp3/grp1，。。。，grp4/grp3("高过低"(。我试过把reverse=TRUE粘在不同的地方，但没有效果。
除了重新调整研究组因素外，emmeans中还有什么可以做的吗？
谢谢！

Russ Lenth在注释和emmeans文档中为contrast函数提供的答案是在contrast函数调用中将pairwise替换为revpairwise。
