create_ad_int_group: Generate an artifact distribution object for a dichotomous grouping variable for use in interactive artifact-distribution meta-analysis programs.

Description

This wrapper for link{create_ad_int} generates ad_obj class objects containing interactive artifact distributions for dichotomous group-membership variables. Use this to create objects that can be supplied to the ma_r_ad and ma_d_ad functions to apply psychometric corrections to barebones meta-analysis objects via artifact distribution methods.

Usage

create_ad_int_group(rGg = NULL, wt_rGg = rep(1, length(rGg)), pi = NULL,
  pa = NULL, wt_p = rep(1, length(pi)), ...)

Arguments

rGg

Vector of correlations between observed-group status and latent-group status.

wt_rGg

Vector of weights associated with the elements in rxxi.

pi

Vector of incumbent/sample proportions of members in one of the two groups being compared (one or both of pi/pa can be vectors - if both are vectors, they must be of equal length).

pa

Vector of applicant/population proportions of members in one of the two groups being compared (one or both of pi/pa can be vectors - if both are vectors, they must be of equal length).

wt_p

Vector of weights associated with the collective element pairs in pi and pa.

...

Further arguments.

Value

Artifact distribution object (list of artifact-distribution tables) for use in interactive artifact-distribution meta-analyses.

Details

Allows consolidation of observed and estimated artifact information by cross-correcting artifact distributions and forming weighted artifact summaries. All artifact distributions are optional; null distributions will be given an artifact value of 1 and a weight of 1 as placeholders.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
create_ad_int_group(rGg = c(.9, .8), wt_rGg = c(50, 150),
                    pi = c(.9, .8), pa = c(.5, .5), wt_p = c(50, 150))
# }
