CoxShugartInv: Inverted Cox-Shugart measure of proportionality

In polrep: Calculate Political Representation Scores

Inverted Cox-Shugart measure of proportionality

Description

Calculate the Cox-Shugart measure of proportionality

Usage

CoxShugartInv(Z,R)

Arguments

Z	Population vector
R	Vector for the representatives

Details

This function calculates the Cox-Shugart measure of proportionality. It provides the slope of the regression line. For perfect representation, a score of 1 is calculated, for values smaller than 1, smaller groups among the representatives are numerically over-represented. This is the inverse regression of CoxShugart.

Value

A single score given the population and representatives
