Jackknife Standard Errors and Confidence Intervals

Description

pool.jack is used to obtain standard errors and confidence intervals from the output of jackknife procedures.

Usage

pool.jack(data, ct = TRUE, estimate, jack_est, side = NULL, conf = 0.95, 
          lower = -Inf, upper = Inf, bias = FALSE)

Arguments

data

the data.

ct

logical: is the data a contingency table?

estimate

the value of the estimate.

jack_est

the vector of estimates from jackknife replications.

side

NULL for a two-sided c.i., "lower" or "upper" for a one-sided interval. "auto" selects "lower" if the estimate is larger than 0 and "upper" if it is smaller than 0.

conf

confidence level expressed as a number between 0 and 1. e.g. for a 95% confidence interval supply 0.95

lower

lowest possible value for one-sided c.i.

upper

largest possible value for one-sided c.i.

bias

logical: apply bias correction? Bias correction currently not implemented.

Value

A named list with the following components:

se

standard error.

low

lower endpoint of c.i.

upp

upper endpoint of c.i.

conf

confidence level of the c.i.

side

"lower" and "upper" for one-sided c.i., "both" for a two-sided c.i.

bias

implementation of bias correction not finished.
