umx (version 1.9.1)

umx_r_test: Test the difference between correlations for significance.

Description

umx_r_test is a wrapper around the cocor test of difference between correlations.

Usage

umx_r_test(data = NULL, vars = vars, alternative = c("two.sided",
  "greater", "less"))

Arguments

data

the dataset

vars

the 4 vars needed: "j & k" and "h & m"

alternative

two (default) or one-sided (greater less) test

Value

-

Details

Currently it handles the test of whether r.jk and r.hm differ in magnitude. i.e, two non-overlapping (no variable in common) correlations in the same dataset. In the future it will be expanded to handle overlapping correlations, and to take correlation matrices as input.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
vars = c("mpg", "cyl", "disp", "hp")
umx_r_test(mtcars, vars)
# }
