Description

rmse computes the root mean squared error (RMSE) of two numeric vectors/matrices

freq computes the frequency counts of a numeric or character vector

cronbach_alpha computes the Cronbach's alpha internal consistency reliability index

spearman_brown predicts the reliability when the current test is extended to n times longer

spearman_brown_reverse computes how many times the current test length needs to be extended in order to reach targeted reliability

quadratic kappa computes the quadratic weighted kappa of two numeric vectors
