Helper functions to test proportion differences

Description

Helper functions to implement various tests on the difference between two proportions.

Usage

prop_chisq(tbl)

prop_cmh(ary)

prop_schouten(tbl)

prop_fisher(tbl)

Arguments

tbl	(matrix) matrix with two groups in rows and the binary response (TRUE/FALSE) in columns.
ary	(array, 3 dimensions) array with two groups in rows, the binary response (TRUE/FALSE) in columns, and the strata in the third dimension.

Value

A p-value.

Functions

• prop_chisq(): Performs Chi-Squared test. Internally calls stats::prop.test().

• prop_cmh(): Performs stratified Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test. Internally calls stats::mantelhaen.test(). Note that strata with less than two observations are automatically discarded.

• prop_schouten(): Performs the Chi-Squared test with Schouten correction.

• prop_fisher(): Performs the Fisher's exact test. Internally calls stats::fisher.test().

See Also

prop_diff_test() for implementation of these helper functions.

Schouten correction is based upon \insertCiteSchouten1980-kd;textualtern.
