twofive: Create twofive binomial family

Description

Creates af binomial family object with the inverse link function equal to the psychometric function for the Two-Out-of-Five test.

Usage

twofive()

Value

A binomial family object for models. Among other things it inludes the psychometric function as linkinv and the inverse psychometric function (for direct d-prime computation) as linkfun.

# NOT RUN {
## Estimating d-prime using glm for a Two-Out-of-Five test:
xt <- matrix(c(10, 5), ncol = 2) ## data: 10 correct answers, 5 incorrect
res <- glm(xt ~ 1, family = twofive)
summary(res)
## Equivalent to (Estimate and Std. Error):
discrim(10, 15, method="twofive")

# }
# NOT RUN {
## Extended example plotting the profile likelihood
## data: 10 correct answers, 9 incorrect
xt <- matrix(c(10, 9), ncol = 2)
summary(res <- glm(xt ~ 1, family = twofive))
N <- 100
dev <- double(N)
delta <- seq(1e-4, 3, length = N)
for(i in 1:N)
  dev[i] <- glm(xt ~ -1 + offset(delta[i]),
                family = twofive)$deviance
plot(delta, exp(-dev/2), type = "l",
     xlab = expression(delta),
     ylab = "Normalized Profile Likelihood")
## Add Normal approximation:
lines(delta, exp(-(delta - coef(res))^2 /
                 (2 * vcov(res))), lty = 2)
## Add confidence limits:
level <- c(0.95, 0.99)
lim <- sapply(level, function(x) exp(-qchisq(x, df=1)/2) )
abline(h = lim, col = "grey")
