thresh.est: Estimate Threshold Level from Model Object

In MPDiR: Data sets and scripts for Modeling Psychophysical Data in R.

Description

Estimates stimulus level at which probability of a response is some fixed value given a model object for a probit model.

Usage

thresh.est(p, obj)

Arguments

p	numeric vector giving the performance level for the desired threshold
obj	object inheriting from class ‘glm’ from a fit with a binomial family.

Details

Calculates the stimulus level(s) for a probit model of a psychometric function for given levels of performance. For a more general version, see dose.p in pkgMASS.

Value

Vector of numeric indicating the stimulus levels for the given performance levels.
