Cor.PN.Limit {PoisNor}

Finds the feasible correlation range for a pair of Poisson and normal variables

Description

The function computes the lower and upper bounds of a pairwise correlation between a Poisson and a normal variable via the method of Demirtas and Hedeker (2011).

Usage

Cor.PN.Limit(lam)

Arguments

lam

A marginal rate for a Poisson variable of the pair.

Value

A vector of two elements. The first element is the lower bound and the second element is the upper bound.
