HoggAdapt: Adaptive Choice of Rank-Based Test Statistic

Description

Implements the recommendations of Hogg et al. (1975) for data-driven selection of rank-based permutation test statistics. It is designed to select a powerful test statistic given the tailweight and skew of the distribution of y. Best used for continuous distributions that differ in location only (i.e., under a constant treatment effect assumption).

Usage

HoggAdapt(y)

Arguments

y
response variable (numeric vector)

Value

fun, a function designed to be used by the function NPC
