std.time {tempR}R Documentation

Time standardize results

Description

Set results for a temporal evaluation to a timescale by trimming off time prior to the first onset and following the last offset time, and express the remaining times in terms of percentiles [0, 100].

Usage

std.time(X, trim.left = TRUE, trim.right = TRUE, scale = TRUE, missing = 0)

Arguments

X

vector (or data frame) of indicator data.

trim.left

Trim on the left? Default is TRUE.

trim.right

Trim on the right? Default is TRUE.

scale

Set to a [0, 1] scale? Default is TRUE.

missing

indicator for missing data; default is 0.

Value

out vector (or data frame) of trimmed and/or standardized indicator (0/1) data
