Description

In two-sided fixed design two-sample t-tests with composite alternative prior assumed on the standardized effect size (μ_2 - μ_1)/σ under the alternative and a prefixed sample size, this function calculates the expected log(Hajnal's ratio) at a varied range of differences between standardized effect sizes.

fixedHajnal.twot_n(es1 = 0.3, es = c(0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5), 
                   n1.fixed = 20, n2.fixed = 20, 
                   nReplicate = 50000, nCore)

Arguments

es1

Positive numeric. δ as above. Default: 0.3. For this, the prior on (μ_2 - μ_1)/σ takes values 0.3 and -0.3 each with equal probability 1/2.

es

Numeric vector. Standardized effect size differences (μ_2 - μ_1)/σ where the expected weights of evidence is desired. Default: c(0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5).

n1.fixed

Positive integer. Prefixed sample size from Group-1. Default: 20.

n2.fixed

Positive integer. Prefixed sample size from Group-2. Default: 20.

nReplicate

Positve integer. Number of replicated studies based on which the expected weights of evidence is calculated. Default: 50,000.

nCore

Positive integer. Default: One less than the total number of available cores.

Value

A list with two components named summary and BF.

$summary is a data frame with columns effect.size containing the values in es and avg.logBF containing the expected log(Hajnal's ratios) at those values.

$BF is a matrix of dimension length(es) by nReplicate. Each row contains the Hajnal's ratios at the corresponding standardized effec size in nReplicate replicated studies.
