Meta-d' balance calculation

Description

The expected input is two vectors, one for responses to each stimulus, encoding the observers response and confidence. For example, for two stimului labelled A and B, with three confidence ratings, participants could respond to stimulus A as follows: Response: A, rating: 3, count: 60 Response: A, rating: 2, count: 30 Response: A, rating: 1, count: 10 Response: B, rating: 1, count: 7 Response: B, rating: 2, count: 4 Response: B, rating: 3, count: 1

Usage

fit_meta_d_bal(nr_s1, nr_s2, s = 1, add_constant = FALSE)

Arguments

nr_s1

Responses to S1 stimulus. See below for advice.

nr_s2

Responses to S2 stimulus. See below for advice.

s

Ratio of standard deviations for the S1 and S2 stimulus. Defaults to 1.

add_constant

Add a small constant to all cells to adjust for boundary issues, and for consistency with the use of this method with other meta-d measures. Note: default for this is FALSE.

Details

The appropriate vector would be nr_s1 <- c(60,30,10,7,4,1)

For stimulus B, we would have the respective vector for responses to stimulus B, eg: Response: A, rating: 3, count: 4 Response: A, rating: 2, count: 6 Response: A, rating: 1, count: 11 Response: B, rating: 1, count: 13 Response: B, rating: 2, count: 23 Response: B, rating: 3, count: 61

nr_s2 <- c(4,6,11,13,23,61)
