comp_mirt: Compute a decision's miss rate from its sensitivity.

Description

comp_mirt is a conversion function that takes a sensitivity sens -- given as a probability (i.e., a numeric value in the range from 0 to 1) -- as its input, and returns the corresponding miss rate mirt -- also as a probability -- as its output.

Usage

comp_mirt(sens)

Arguments

sens

The decision's sensitivity sens as a probability.

Value

The decision's miss rate mirt as a probability.

Details

The miss rate mirt and sensitivity sens are complements (mirt = (1 - sens)) and both features of the decision process (e.g., a diagnostic test).

The function comp_mirt is complementary to the conversion function comp_sens and uses the generic function comp_complement.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
comp_mirt(2)                      # => NA + warning (beyond range)
comp_mirt(1/3)                    # => 0.6666667
comp_mirt(comp_complement(0.123))  # => 0.123
