ci.cor

Computes a Fisher confidence interval for a population Pearson correlation
or partial correlation with s control variables. Set s = 0 for a Pearson
correlation. A bias adjustment is used to reduce the bias of the Fisher
transformed correlation. This function uses an estimated correlation as
input. Use the cor.test function for raw data input.

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
