twoStepTransform {superb}R Documentation

two-step transform for subject centering and bias correction

Description

twoStepTransform is a transformation that can be applied to a matrix of data. The resulting matrix is both subject-centered and bias corrected, a technique called the CM technique (Baguley 2012; Cousineau 2005; Morey 2008)

Usage

twoStepTransform(dta, variables)

Arguments

dta

a data.frame containing the data in wide format;

variables

a vector of column names on which the transformation will be applied. the remaining columns will be left unchanged

Value

a data.frame of the same form as dta with the variables transformed.

This function is useful when passed to the argument preprocessfct of superbPlot() where it performs a modification of the data matrix.
