effect.size {RRPP}

Obtain Effect-size from a vector of values

Description

A function to find the effect size (Z-score) of a target, from a vector of values presumably obtained in random permutations.

Usage

effect.size(x, center = TRUE, target = NULL)

Arguments

x

The vector of data to use.

center

Logical value for whether to center x.

target

The value to target in the distribution. (If null, the first value in the vector is used.). If the target exists outside the range of x, very small or very large z-scores are possible. Additionally, if the target is excessively outside of the range of x, it could affect the Box-Cox transformation used to transform x.
