fixedHajnal.onet_n {NAP}

Fixed-design one-sample t-tests using Hajnal's ratio and a pre-fixed sample size

Description

In two-sided fixed design one-sample t-tests with composite alternative prior assumed on the standardized effect size \mu/\sigma under the alternative and a prefixed sample size, this function calculates the expected log(Hajnal's ratio) at a varied range of standardized effect sizes.

Usage

fixedHajnal.onet_n(es1 = 0.3, es = c(0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5), 
                   n.fixed = 20, 
                   nReplicate = 50000, nCore)

Arguments

es1

Positive numeric. Default: 0.3. For this, the composite alternative prior on the standardized effect size \mu/\sigma takes values 0.3 and -0.3 each with equal probability 1/2.

es

Numeric vector. Standardized effect sizes \mu/\sigma where the expected weights of evidence is desired. Default: c(0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5).

n.fixed

Positive integer. Prefixed sample size. Default: 20.

nReplicate

Positve integer. Number of replicated studies based on which the expected weights of evidence is calculated. Default: 50,000.

nCore

Positive integer. Default: One less than the total number of available cores.

Value

A list with two components named summary and BF.

$summary is a data frame with columns effect.size containing the values in es and avg.logBF containing the expected log(Hajnal's ratios) at those values.

$BF is a matrix of dimension length(es) by nReplicate. Each row contains the Hajnal's ratios at the corresponding standardized effec size in nReplicate replicated studies.
