Qtest: Q-test to assess compatibility between original and replication effect estimate
Description
Computes p-value from meta-analytic Q-test to assess compatibility between
original and replication effect estimate.
Usage
Qtest(thetao, thetar, seo, ser)
Value
p-value from Q-test.
Arguments
thetao
Numeric vector of effect estimates from original studies.
thetar
Numeric vector of effect estimates from replication studies.
seo
Numeric vector of standard errors of the original effect estimates.
ser
Numeric vector of standard errors of the replication effect estimates.
Author
Samuel Pawel
Details
This function computes the p-value from a meta-analytic Q-test assessing
compatibility between original and replication effect estimate. Rejecting
compatibility when the p-value is smaller than alpha is equivalent with
rejecting compatibility based on a (1 - alpha) prediction interval.
