splithalf.multiverse {splithalf}R Documentation

Multiverse of data processing decisions on internal consistency reliability estimates.

Description

This function enables the user to run a multiverse of data processing options and extract the resulting (internal consistency) reliability estimates generated by splithalf. The user specifies a set of data processing decisions and passes this to the function, along with a splithalf object. The output can then be explored and plotted as desired.

Usage

splithalf.multiverse(input, specifications)

Arguments

input

splithalf object or list of splithalf objects

specifications

list of data processing specifications

Details

The (unofficial) function version name is "This function will let you get honey from a hornets nest"

Value

Returns a multiverse object containing the reliability estimates and dataframes from all data processing specifications provided
