RProbSup (version 3.0)

Ord2: Ord2

Description

Calculates the confidence interval for the ordinal comparison of the A statistic for two or more correlated samples.

Usage

Ord2(y, weights = FALSE, increase = FALSE, n.bootstrap = 1999,
conf.level = .95, ci.method = 1, seed = 1)

Arguments

y

Matrix of cases (rows) by scores (column 1) and group codes (column 2) (matrix).

weights

Weight of each case. Set to TRUE to weight cases; if so, column 3 contains case weights (default = FALSE).

increase

Set to TRUE if scores are predicted to increase with group codes (default = FALSE).

n.bootstrap

Number of bootstrap samples (scalar, default = 1999).

conf.level

Confidence level (scalar, default = .95).

ci.method

Method used to construct confidence interval (scalar, default = 1 (for BCA), user can also call 2 (for percentile).

seed

Random number seed (scalar, default = 1).

Value

A vector containing the A statistic, its estimated standard error, and the upper and lower bounds of the confidence interval.

# NOT RUN {
x1 <- rnorm(25)
x2 <- x1 - rnorm(25, mean = 1)
x3 <- x2 - rnorm(25, mean = 1)
y <- cbind(x1, x2, x3)
Ord2(y)
