chiKappa {PoolBal}R Documentation

Chi-squared kappa for a given centrality quotient

Description

Computes the kappa (degrees of freedom) required to obtain a given centrality quotient using the chi-square pooled p-value.

Usage

chiKappa(
  cq,
  M,
  alpha = 0.05,
  interval = c(0, 100),
  tol = .Machine$double.eps^0.5
)

Arguments

cq

numeric between 0 and 1

M

integer sample size greater than 0

alpha

numeric between 0 and 1

interval

numeric of length 2, where should roots be sought?

tol

numeric, how close do values need to be for equality?

Details

This function is essentially a wrapper for uniroot which finds where chiCentQuot gives an output equal to the given centrality quotient to provide an approximate kappa giving that quotient.

Value

A numeric within interval.
