zSceptical: Computes the test statistic of the sceptical p-value

In ReplicationSuccess: Design and Analysis of Replication Studies

Description

The test statistic of the sceptical p-value is computed based on the z-value of the original and the replication study and the corresponding variance ratio.

Usage

zSceptical(zo, zr, c)

Arguments

zo	A vector of z-values from original studies.
zr	A vector of z-values from replication studies.
c	A vector of variance ratios of the original and replication effect estimates. This is usually the ratio of the sample size of the replication study to the sample size of the original study.

Value

The z-value of the sceptical p-value.
