replext_t5_c1.3 {npboottprm}

Replicate and Extend Simulation Results for Paired Distributions with Skewness

Description

This function, serving as a wrapper around 'replext_t5_c1.1', is designed to replicate and extend the simulation results from Table 5 cell 1.3 of the paper by Dwivedi et al. (2017). It focuses on paired distributions featuring both normal and skew normal distributions, with specified skewness parameters for each group.

Usage

replext_t5_c1.3(
  M1 = 5,
  S1 = 1,
  M2 = 5,
  S2 = 1,
  Sk1 = 0.5,
  Sk2 = 0.5,
  correl = 0.8,
  n = c(3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 15, 25),
  n_simulations = 10000,
  nboot = 1000,
  conf.level = 0.95
)

Arguments

M1

Mean for the first group, default is 5.

S1

Standard deviation for the first group, default is 1.

M2

Mean for the second group, default is 5.

S2

Standard deviation for the second group, default is 1.

Sk1

Skewness parameter for the first group, default is 0.5.

Sk2

Skewness parameter for the second group, default is 0.5.

correl

Correlation between the two groups, default is 0.8.

n

Vector of sample sizes for the paired groups.

n_simulations

Number of simulations to run, default is 10,000.

nboot

Number of bootstrap samples, default is 1000.

conf.level

Confidence level for calculating p-value thresholds, default is 0.95.

Value

A data frame with columns for each sample size and the proportions of significant p-values for each test (PT, NPBTT, WRST, PTT), similar to 'replext_t5_c1.1' but with skewness parameters for the groups.
