parametric_ci {rbmi}

Calculate parametric confidence intervals

Description

Calculates confidence intervals based upon a parametric distribution.

Usage

parametric_ci(point, se, alpha, alternative, qfun, pfun, ...)

Arguments

point

The point estimate.

se

The standard error of the point estimate. If using a non-"normal" distribution this should be set to 1.

alpha

The type 1 error rate, should be a value between 0 and 1.

alternative

a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of "two.sided" (default), "greater" or "less".

qfun

The quantile function for the assumed distribution i.e. qnorm.

pfun

The CDF function for the assumed distribution i.e. pnorm.

...

additional arguments passed on qfun and pfun i.e. df = 102.
