Back-transform effect-sizes to response scale.

Source: R/back_transformations.R
back.Rd

Transforms effect-sizes and their standard errors to the response scale.

Usage

log_back(beta, se, sim)

logit_back(beta, se, sim)

probit_back(beta, se, sim)

inverse_back(beta, se, sim)

square_back(beta, se, sim)

cube_back(beta, se, sim)

identity_back(beta, se, sim)

power_back(beta, se, sim, n)

divide_back(beta, se, sim, n)

square_root_back(beta, se, sim)

Arguments

beta

Analyst beta estimate

se

Standard error of analyst's effect size estimate \(\beta\) or out-of-sample prediction estimate \(y_i\).

sim

numeric vector of length 1. number of simulations.

n

Denominator used by analyst to divide the response variable.

Value

data frame containing the mean estimate, its standard error, and quantiles.

Details

We assume analysts' estimates are normally distributed. Each function uses a normal distribution to simulate the a distribution of effect-sizes and their standard errors. Next this distribution is back-transformed to the desired response scale. The mean m_est, standard error se_est, and quantiles (lower and upper) of the back-transformed distribution are returned within a dataframe.
