Description

Confidence Intervals.

Calculates classic and/or bootstrap confidence intervals for many parameters such as the population mean, variance, interquartile range (IQR), median absolute deviation (MAD), skewness, kurtosis, Cramer's V, odds ratio, R-squared, quantiles (incl. median), proportions, different types of correlation measures, difference in means, quantiles and medians. Many of the classic confidence intervals are described in Smithson, M. (2003, ISBN: 978-0761924999). Bootstrap confidence intervals are calculated with the R package 'boot'. Both one- and two-sided intervals are supported.

CRAN status R-CMD-check Codecov test coverage

Overview

{confintr} offers classic and/or bootstrap confidence intervals (CI) for the following parameters:

  • mean,
  • quantiles incl. median,
  • proportion,
  • variance and standard deviation,
  • IQR and MAD,
  • skewness and kurtosis,
  • R-squared and the non-centrality parameter of the F distribution,
  • Cramér's V and the non-centrality parameter of the chi-squared distribution,
  • odds ratio of a 2x2 table,
  • Pearson-, Spearman-, Kendall correlation coefficients,
  • mean differences, quantile and median differences.

Both one- and two-sided intervals are supported.

Different types of bootstrap intervals are available via {boot}, see vignette.
