In WMAP: Weighted Meta-Analysis with Pseudo-Populations

Validate method and FLEXOR-specific parameters

Description

Checks that the selected method is valid and that FLEXOR parameters meet required constraints

Usage

fn.userInputChecks_1(
  method,
  flexorFlag,
  gammaMin,
  gammaMax,
  num.random,
  naturalGroupProp
)

Arguments

method	Character string: "IC", "IGO", or "FLEXOR" (case insensitive)
flexorFlag	Logical indicating if FLEXOR method is selected
gammaMin	Lower bound for gamma parameters (FLEXOR only)
gammaMax	Upper bound for gamma parameters (FLEXOR only)
num.random	Number of random starting points (FLEXOR only)
naturalGroupProp	Probability vector for group prevalences (FLEXOR only)

Value

NULL (stops with error if validation fails)
