Density of Nr assuming a truncated normal or a folded normal
Description
Density of Nr assuming a truncated normal or a folded normal.
Usage
truncnorm.nr.density(nr, k, alpha = 0.05)
foldnorm.nr.density(nr, k, alpha = 0.05)
Arguments
nr |
The value of Nr, which must be positive aparently. |
k |
The number of studies. |
alpha |
The significance level, set to 0.05 by default. |
Details
The function calculates the density of Nr assuming either a truncated normal (Equation (9)) or a folded normal (Equation (15)) in Fragkos, Tsagris & Frangos (2017).
Value
The density value of Nr assuming either a truncated normal or a folded normal.
