truncate_var: Truncation function for variances

Description

This function computes the variance of a normal distributions that has been truncated at one or both ends.

Usage

truncate_var(a = -Inf, b = Inf, mean = 0, sd = 1)

Value

A vector of truncated variances

Arguments

a

Quantile (i.e., cut score) below which scores should be censored from the distribution.

b

Quantile (i.e., cut score) above which scores should be censored from the distribution.

mean

Scalar mean or vector of means.

sd

Scalar standard deviation or vector of standard deviations.

Examples

truncate_var(a = -1, b = 3, mean = 0, sd = 1)
truncate_var(a = 1, b = Inf, mean = 0, sd = 1)
truncate_var(a = c(-1, 1), b = c(3, Inf), mean = 0, sd = 1)
