dnorm_summary: Normal distribution density function for summary data

Description

Evaluates the normal distribution density function for summary data reported as sample mean, sample SD, and sample N.

Usage

dnorm_summary(mu, sigma, x_mean, x_sd, x_N, log = FALSE)

Value

A numeric scalar or vector matching the length of the longest of `mu`, `sigma`, `x_mean`, `x_sd`, and `x_N`.

Arguments

mu

Mean of the normal distribution to be evaluated (*not* the sample mean). May be a numeric scalar or vector.

sigma

Standard deviation of the normal distribution to be evaluated (*not* the sample SD). May be a numeric scalar or vector.

x_mean

Sample mean. May be a numeric scalar or vector.

x_sd

Sample standard deviation. May be a numeric scalar or vector.

x_N

Sample number of observations. May be a numeric scalar or vector.

log

TRUE/FALSE: Whether to return the log of the density function. Default FALSE (to return the density function value on the natural scale).

Details

`x_mean`, `x_sd`, `X_N`, `mu`, and `sigma` should either be all the same size, or length 1. If they are different lengths, they will be repeated until their lengths match, with a warning.
