missingHE (version 1.5.0)

prior_selection_long: An internal function to change the hyperprior parameters in the selection model provided by the user depending on the type of missingness mechanism and outcome distributions assumed

Description

This function modifies default hyper prior parameter values in the type of selection model selected according to the type of missingness mechanism and distributions for the outcomes assumed.

)

Arguments

type

Type of missingness mechanism assumed. Choices are Missing At Random (MAR), Missing Not At Random for the effects (MNAR_eff), Missing Not At Random for the costs (MNAR_cost), and Missing Not At Random for both (MNAR). For a complete list of all available hyper parameters and types of models see the manual.

dist_u

distribution assumed for the effects. Current available chocies are: Normal ('norm'), Beta ('beta'), Gamma ('gamma'), Exponential ('exp'), Weibull ('weibull'), Logistic ('logis'), Poisson ('pois'), Negative Binomial ('nbinom') or Bernoulli ('bern')

dist_c

Distribution assumed for the costs. Current available chocies are: Normal ('norm'), Gamma ('gamma') or LogNormal ('lnorm')

pu_fixed

Number of fixed effects for the effectiveness model

pc_fixed

Number of fixed effects for the cost model

zu_fixed

Number of fixed effects or the missingness indicators model for the effectiveness

zc_fixed

Number of fixed effects or the missingness indicators model for the costs

model_u_random
