Usage
beta_mdat
Format
A data.frame with 40 studies:
- study
No of studies
- n1
sample size of group 1 with equal sample size for the two studies. Generated with uniform distribution.
- m1
mean of group 1. Population mean is equal to 1. The data of group 1 is generated with skewness = 4 and kurtosis = 2.
- sd1
standard deviation of group 1. Population sd of group 1 is equal to 1.
- lo1
minimum of the generated sample for group 1.
- hi1
maximum of the generated sample for group 1.
- n2
sample size of study 2; n1 = n2 for each study
- m2
mean of group 2. Population mean is equal to 1.5. The data of group 2 is generated with skewness = -4 and kurtosis = 2.
- sd2
standard deviation of group 2. Population sd of group 2 is equal to 1.
- lo2
minimum of the generated sample for group 2.
