This function is now deprecated. You should use MetaUtility::prop_stronger
instead, which
provides better, more general functionality. The below documentation is temporarily maintained before
the stronger_than
function is deprecated.
stronger_than(q, yr, vyr = NULL, t2, vt2 = NULL, CI.level = 0.95,
tail)
True effect size that is the threshold for "scientific importance"
Average true effect estimated using replications
Estimated variance of above estimate
Heterogeneity of true effects estimated using replications
Estimated variance of above estimate
Confidence level as a proportion
above
for the probability of an effect above q
; below
for
the probability of an effect below q
.
Given the original study's effect estimate and its variance, the estimated average true effect size in the replications, and the estimated heterogeneity in the replications, computes estimated probability that the original study would have an effect estimate at least as extreme as the observed value if the original and the replications in fact are statistically consistent. Allows for heterogeneity.
