#' Absolute Difference for Pairs - AD(x)
#' @param x a column vector of scores on which the AD(x) is conditioned
#' @param g1 a column vector of equated scores based on a single subpopulation (aligned with elements in x)
#' @param g2 a column vector of equated scores based on a different single subpopulation (aligned with elements in x)
#' @param d a scalar of the difference that matters
#' @param s a scalar representing the standard deviation of x for any (sub)population of interest (e.g., synthetic population) (default is 1, which leads to calculation of the unstandardized adx)
#' @param ymax A maximum value for the y axis of the plot (default = 3 + the maximum AD(x) value)
#' @param xlab A label for the x axis of the plot (default = Score Scale)
#' @param color color of AD(x) line and points on plot (default = red)
