In SimDesign: Structure for Organizing Monte Carlo Simulation Designs

Compute the empirical detection rate for Type I errors and Power

Description

Computes the detection rate for determining empirical Type I error and power rates using information from p-values.

Usage

EDR(p, alpha = 0.05, unname = FALSE)

Arguments

p	a numeric vector or matrix/data.frame of p-values from the desired statistical estimator. If a matrix, each statistic must be organized by column, where the number of rows is equal to the number of replications
alpha	the nominal detection rate to be studied (typical values are .10, .05, and .01). Default is .05
unname	logical; apply unname to the results to remove any variable names?
