Description

caceCRTBoot performs exploratoty CACE analysis of cluster randomised education trials.

Usage

1
caceCRTBoot(formula, random, intervention, compliance, nBoot, data)

Arguments

formula

the model to be analysed. It is of the form y ~ x1+x2+.... Where y is the outcome variable and Xs are the predictors.

random

a string variable specifying the "clustering variable" as contained in the data. See example below

intervention

a string variable specifying the "intervention variable" as appeared in the formula. See example below

compliance

a string variable specifying the "compliance variable" as contained in the data. The data must be in percentages ranging from 0 - 100.
