calcCliffdConfidenceIntervals
Description
This functions is a helper function. It assesses the significance one-sided and two-sided statistical of Cliff's d based on its confidence interval. The type of test is determined by the parameter One.Sided.Tests, the direction of one-sided tests is determined by the parameter Positive.MD.
Usage
calcCliffdConfidenceIntervals(
d.value,
d.variance,
d.df,
alpha = 0.05,
alternative = "two.sided"
)
Arguments
d.value |
This is the value of Cliff's d. |
d.variance |
This is the estimated variance of Cliff's d |
d.df |
The degrees of freedom. |
alpha |
This is the alpha level required for the statistical tests (default 0.05) |
alternative |
This defines whether a one-sided test or a two-sided (default) test is required. For a one-sided test use parameter values greater' or 'less' to define whether the d-value should be greater or less than zero. |
Value
The function returns a Boolean variable identifying whether the effect size is significant and the confidence interval bounds.
