ci.biphi

Computes a confidence interval for a population biserial-phi correlation
using a transformation of a confidence interval for an odds ratio with .5
added to each cell frequency. This measure of association assumes the group
variable is naturally dichotomous and the response variable is artificially
dichotomous.

Implements confidence interval and sample size methods that
are especially useful in psychological research. The methods can be
applied in 1-group, 2-group, paired-samples, and multiple-group designs
and to a variety of parameters including means, medians, proportions,
slopes, standardized mean differences, standardized linear contrasts
of means, plus several measures of correlation and association.
Confidence interval and sample size functions are given for single
parameters as well as differences, ratios, and linear contrasts of
parameters. The sample size functions can be used to approximate the
sample size needed to estimate a parameter or function of parameters
with desired confidence interval precision or to perform a variety of
hypothesis tests (directional two-sided, equivalence, superiority,
noninferiority) with desired power. For details see: Statistical Methods
