Wald tests for comparison of proportions to theoretical values

Description

Performs pairwise comparisons of proportions to theoretical values.

Usage

wald.ptheo.multinom.test(x, p, p.method = "fdr")

Arguments

x	either a factor or a matrix with K columns giving the counts for each of the K classes.
p	theoretical proportions.
p.method	method for p-values correction. See help of p.adjust.

Details

The function builds K logistic regressions (in each case considering one class vs. the sum of all others) and uses wald.ptheo.test to test the hypothesis that the proportion of this class is equal to p[K].

Value

method	name of the test.
data.name	a character string giving the name(s) of the data.
observed	observed proportions.
expected	theoretical proportions.
p.adjust.method	method for p-values correction.
statistic	statistics of each test.
p.value2	corrected p-values.
p.value	data frame of results.
