dep.t.test: A t-test with dependent samples using individual data

Description

dep.t.test conducts a t-test with dependent samples using individual data.

Usage

dep.t.test(formula, data, block, 
                    sig.level=.05, digits=3)

Arguments

formula

two-sided formula; the left-hand-side of which gives one dependent variable containing a numeric variable, and the right-hand-side of one independent variable containing a factor with two levels

data

a data frame contains the variables in the fomrmula

block

a character string specify the blocking variable

sig.level

a numeric contains the significance level (default 0.05)

digits

the specified number of decimal places (default 3)

Value

• The returned object of dep.t.test.second contains the following components:
• samp.stat
  returns the means, standard deviations, sample size, and correlation
• raw.difference
  returns a raw mean difference, its' confidence interval, and standard error
• standardized.difference
  returns a standardized mean difference (Hedges's $g$) and its' approximate confidence interval for a population standardized mean difference
