ridit: Ridit Analysis

In Ridit: Ridit Analysis (An extension of the Kruskal-Wallis Test.)

Description

An extension of the Kruskal-Wallis test that allow specify arbitrary reference group. Also provide Mean Ridit for each group. Mean Ridit of a group is an estimate of probability a random observation from that group will be greater than or equal to a random observation from reference group.

Usage

ridit(x, g, ref = NULL)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector of data values or a matrix of crosstab data.
g	a vector giving group of data or when x is a crosstab, number 1 or 2 when group is in the row or column of crosstab.
ref	a text corresponds to label or code of arbitrary reference group or a number corresponds to row of group in output (when we want change reference group of output). Also user can enter an arbitrary numeric vector as reference group. Default is Null that used for total of all group as reference (special case that equivalent to the Kruskal-Wallis test).
