mc.calc.quantile: Quantile Method for Calculation of Resampling Confidence Intervals

Description

Calculate bootstrap confidence intervals for intercept, slope or bias given the vector of bootstrap point estimates.

Usage

mc.calc.quantile(Xboot, alpha)

Value

a list with elements

est

median of bootstrap point estimates Xboot.

CI

confidence interval for point estimate 'est', calculated as quantiles.

Arguments

Xboot

vector of point estimates for bootstrap samples. The i-th element contains point estimate of the i-th bootstrap sample.

alpha

numeric value specifying the 100(1-alpha)% confidence level for the confidence interval (Default is 0.05).
