dicho.meansd.zvarR Documentation

variance of z converted from dichotomizing/extreme group design mean and sd

Description

compute the variance of z from means and sds derived from dichotomizing/extreme group design d
see pustejovsky, 2014. psychological methods.

Usage

dicho.meansd.zvar(m1, m2, sd1, sd2, n1, n2, p1, p2, type = c("vd.ce", "vd.eg"))

Arguments

m1

mean of group 1

m2

mean of group 2

sd1

standard deviation of group 1

sd2

standard deviation of group 2

n1

cell size of group 1

n2

cell size of group 2

p1

cutoff percentile for group 1 (sample-based, please see other formulas for population-based in pustejovsky, 2014)

p2

cutoff percentile for group 2 (sample-based, please see other formulas for population-based in pustejovsky, 2014)

type

select one (read pustejovsky, 2014. psychological methods. for recommendations
there are situations where the "controlled experiment" formulas are recommended even for stats derived from dichotomize/extreme group designs
so please refer to his paper)

  • "vd.ce" compute variance of d using the controlled experiment formulas

  • "vd.eg" compute variance of d using the extreme group formulas

Examples

dicho.meansd.zvar(15, 13, 1.4, 0.9, 15, 15, 1/3, 1/3, "vd.eg")
