NSM3 (version 1.11)

pMaxCorrNor: Function to compute the upper tail probability of the maximum of k N(0,1) random variables with common correlation for a given cutoff.

Description

Uses the integrate function based on the method proposed in Gupta, Panchapakesan and Sohn (1983).

Usage

pMaxCorrNor(x,k,rho)

Arguments

x

Cutoff at which the upper-tail P-value is to be calculated.

k

Number of random variables.

rho

Common correlation between the random variables.

Value

Returns the upper tail probability at the user-specified cutoff.
