Age-Period-Cohort (APC) analysis aims to determine relevant drivers for long-term developments and is used in many fields of science (Yang & Land, 2013).The R package APCtools offers modern visualization techniques and general routines to facilitate the interpretability of the interdependent temporal structures and to simplify the workflow of an APC analysis.Separation of the temporal effects is performed utilizing a semiparametric regression approach.We shortly discuss the challenges of APC analysis, give an overview of existing statistical software packages and outline the main functionalities of the package.
