n.pooled: Sample size for pooled testing for freedom

Description

Calculates sample size to achieve desired population-level sensitivity, assuming pooled sampling and allowing for imperfect sensitivity and specificity of the pooled test

Usage

n.pooled(sep, k, pstar, pse, psp = 1)

Arguments

sep

desired population sensitivity (scalar or vector)

k

pool size (constant across pools) (scalar or vector of same length as sep)

pstar

design prevalence (scalar or vector of same length as sep)

pse

pool-level sensitivity (scalar or vector of same length as sep)

psp

pool-level specificity (scalar or vector of same length as sep)

Value

vector of sample sizes
