ci.ratio.prop.ps: Confidence interval for a paired-samples proportion ratio

Description

Computes a confidence interval for a ratio of population proportions in a paired-samples design. This function requires the frequency counts from a 2 x 2 contingency table for two repeated dichotomous measurements.

Usage

ci.ratio.prop.ps(alpha, f00, f01, f10, f11)

Value

Returns a 1-row matrix. The columns are:

  • Estimate - estimate of proportion ratio

  • LL - lower limit of the confidence interval

  • UL - upper limit of the confidence interval

Arguments

alpha

alpha level for 1-alpha confidence

f00

number of participants with y = 0 and x = 0

f01

number of participants with y = 0 and x = 1

f10

number of participants with y = 1 and x = 0

f11

number of participants with y = 1 and x = 1
