Description

Checks consistency between the sided of the hypothesis and the minimal clinically relevant effect size or safe test defining parameter. Throws an error if the one-sided hypothesis is incongruent with the

Usage

checkAndReturnsEsMinParameterSide(
  paramToCheck,
  alternative = c("twoSided", "greater", "less"),
  esMinName = c("noName", "meanDiffMin", "phiS", "deltaMin", "deltaS", "hrMin", "thetaS",
    "deltaTrue"),
  paramDomain = NULL
)

Value

paramToCheck after checking, perhaps with a change in sign

Arguments

paramToCheck

numeric. Either a named safe test defining parameter such as phiS, or thetaS, or a minimal clinically relevant effect size called with a non-null esMinName name

alternative

a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis must be one of "twoSided" (default), "greater" or "less".

esMinName

provides the name of the effect size. Either "meanDiffMin" for the z-test, "deltaMin" for the t-test, or "hrMin" for the logrank test

paramDomain

Domain of the paramToCheck, typically, positiveNumbers. Default NULL
