meta.lc.agree: Confidence interval for a linear contrast of G-index coefficients

Description

Computes the estimate, standard error, and adjusted Wald confidence interval for a linear contrast of G-index of agreement coefficients from two or more studies. This function assumes that two raters each provide a dichotomous rating for a sample of objects.

Usage

meta.lc.agree(alpha, f11, f12, f21, f22, v)

Value

Returns 1-row matrix with the following columns:

  • Estimate - estimated linear contrast

  • SE - standard error

  • LL - lower limit of the adjusted Wald confidence interval

  • UL - upper limit of the adjusted Wald confidence interval

Arguments

alpha

alpha level for 1-alpha confidence

f11

vector of frequency counts in cell 1,1

f12

vector of frequency counts in cell 1,2

f21

vector of frequency counts in cell 2,1

f22

vector of frequency counts in cell 2,2

v

vector of contrast coefficients

Run this code
f11 <- c(43, 56, 49)
f12 <- c(7, 2, 9)
f21 <- c(3, 5, 5)
f22 <- c(37, 54, 39)
v <- c(.5, .5, -1)
meta.lc.agree(.05, f11, f12, f21, f22, v)

# Should return:
