get_icc: Function to calculate the intracluster correlation...

In validmeasures/sampsizer: An Implementation of Equations for Calculating Sample Sizes for Various Estimators in R

Description

Function to calculate the intracluster correlation coefficient of an indicator collected from random cluster survey (RCS). This is a wrapper of the deff() function in the Hmisc package.

Usage

get_icc(x, cluster)

Arguments

x	variable to calculate ICC from
cluster	variable identifying the clusters or groupings of the variable

Value

A vector with named elements n (total number of non-missing observations), clusters (number of clusters after deleting missing data), rho (intra-cluster correlation), and deff (design effect).

Examples

  x <- sample(1:2, size = 25, replace = TRUE)
  cluster <- c(rep(1, 5), rep(2, 5), rep(3, 5), rep(4, 5), rep(5, 5))
  get_icc(x = x, cluster = cluster)
