In effectsizescr: Indices for Single-Case Research

Description

Nonoverlap and trend for single case research: the TAU-U function of Parker et al. (2011).

Usage

TAU(data1, nameTime = "TIME", namePhase = "DUMMYPHASE",

	nameDV = "DV", Aphase = 0, Bphase = 1)

Arguments

data1	a matrix or a dataframe with time,outcome and phases columns
nameTime	the name of the time column
namePhase	the name of the phase column
nameDV	the name of the dependent variable
Aphase	how phase A was coded in the phases column
Bphase	how phase B was coded in the phases column

Value

A list including partition matrix, full matrix and TAU-U analysis
