ma.test: P value for an association score.

Description

This function computes a p value for an association score using interpolation (fast - only available for the bivariate case) or a permutation test.

Usage

ma.test(d, maStruct, permPartition, lookup, reps)

Value

Returns a real number in the range [0,1].

Details

Computes a p value for an association from the likelihood ratio statistic computed by ma. Uses interpolation by default for bivariate associations, and permutation testing for multivariate associations.

Examples

d <- shpd(n=100,m=2,Rsq=0.2)
    aScore <- ma(d)
    ma.test(d, aScore)
    # or set lookup to FALSE if you have computing time available
    # ma.test(d, aScore, lookup=FALSE, reps=10000)
