In statpsych: Statistical Methods for Psychologists

Computes confidence intervals in a 2x2 mixed design for medians

Description

Computes distribution-free confidence intervals based on medians for the AB interaction effect, main effect of A, main efect of B, simple main effects of A, and simple main effects of B in a 2x2 mixed design where Factor A is the within-subjects factor and Factor B is the between subbjects factor. Tied scores are assumed to be rare.

Usage

ci.2x2.median.mixed(alpha, y11, y12, y21, y22)

Arguments

alpha	alpha level for 1-alpha confidence
y11	vector of scores at level 1 of A in group 1
y12	vector of scores at level 2 of A in group 1
y21	vector of scores at level 1 of A in group 2
y22	vector of scores at level 2 of A in group 2

Value

Returns a 7-row matrix (one row per effect). The columns are:

• Estimate - estimate of effect

• SE - standard error

• LL - lower limit of the confidence interval

• UL - upper limit of the confidence interval
