get.ICC: Intra-class Correlations

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Note Author(s) References See Also Examples

Description

Calculates the 6 intra-class correlations for the columns in the matrix or data.frame x, where the columns are typically raters or items, following Shrout and Fleiss (1979).

Usage

1

Arguments

x

A matrix or data.frame on which to calculate ICCs of the columns.

Details

This function is the workhorse function for item.ICC and Profile.ICC. It computes the intra-class correlations for a single item and for the composite of the items in the data.frame or matrix x. Of note, the results should be intepreted with extreme caution if values in x are missing. If possible, the best choice is to remove missing values from x first.

Value

A matrix containing the values for the six possible intra-class correlations described by Shrout and Fleiss (1979).

Note

This function is the workhorse function for item.ICC and Profile.ICC. It is rarely used as a stand alone function.
