dprime: d-prime

In wjhopper/whoppeR: Assorted utilities used by me, Will Hopper

Description

Calculate the d' statistic using the hit and false alarm rate to stimuli from the target and lure distribution, respectively.

Usage

dprime(targets, lures, correct = FALSE)

Arguments

targets	A logical vector of yes (TRUE)/no (FALSE) responses to stimili from the target (S1) distribution. Used to calculate the Hit Rate.
lures	logical vector of yes (TRUE)/no (FALSE) responses to stimili from the lure (S0) distribution. Used to calculate the False Alarm Rate.
correct	If true, the 1/2n correction is applied for all yes or all no responses so that the dprime statistic is not Inf or NaN after the z-transform is applied to the Hit and False Alarm Rates

Value

A scalar numeric vector

Examples

dprime(c(0,0,1,1), c(1,0,0,0))
dprime(c(0,0,0,0), c(0,0,0,0), correct = TRUE)
dprime(c(0,0,0,0), c(0,0,0,0)) # NaN
