compute_total {Ymisc}

the bilateral (Left + Right) measures.

Description

compute_total() creates new columns that are the bilateral (Left + Right) measures.

Usage

compute_total(
  data = sample_data,
  left_hemisphere = "lh",
  right_hemisphere = "rh",
  separator = "_",
  ID = "ID",
  hemisphere = "prefix",
  start,
  end
)

Arguments

data

The wide format data

left_hemisphere

The prefix or suffix that indicates the left hemisphere in the variable names

right_hemisphere

The prefix or suffix string that indicate the right hemisphere in the variable names

separator

A character vector that separates characters in the variable names.

ID

The column of identifiers.

hemisphere

The character vector that indicates whether a hemisphere indicator in the variable names is a prefix or suffix.

start

The column that specifies the starting point of a set of variables to calculate the bilateral (L+R) measures.

end

The column that specifies the endpoint of a set of variables to calculate the bilateral (L+R) measures.

Value

The data with the bilateral (L+R) measures.

Examples

compute_total(sample_data,
left_hemisphere="lh",
right_hemisphere="rh",
separator="_",
ID="ID",
