beta_shape2_one_way: Test the equality of shape 2 parameters of beta...

In gmcmacran/MLTesteR: Likelihood Ratio Tests and Confidence Intervals

Test the equality of shape 2 parameters of beta distributions.

Description

Test the equality of shape 2 parameters of beta distributions.

Usage

beta_shape2_one_way(x, fctr, conf.level = 0.95)

Arguments

x	a numeric vector of at least 50 data values per group.
fctr	a factor vector indicating groups.
conf.level	overall confidence level of the likelihood intervals. Uses Bonferroni correction.

Details

• Null: All shape2s are equal. (shape2_1 = shape2_2 ... shape2_k).

• Alternative: At least one shape2 is not equal.

Value

An S3 class containing the test statistic, p value, list of likelihood based confidence intervals, overall confidence level, individual confidence level of each interval and alternative hypothesis.

# Null is true
set.seed(1)
x <- rbeta(150, 2, 2)
fctr <- c(rep(1, 50), rep(2, 50), rep(3, 50))
fctr <- factor(fctr, levels = c("1", "2", "3"))
beta_shape2_one_way(x, fctr, .95)

# Null is false
set.seed(1)
x <- c(rbeta(50, 2, 1), rbeta(50, 2, 2), rbeta(50, 2, 3))
fctr <- c(rep(1, 50), rep(2, 50), rep(3, 50))
fctr <- factor(fctr, levels = c("1", "2", "3"))
