The Wald confidence interval for the difference between paired probabilities

with the pseudo-frequency adjustment suggested by Bonett and Price(2012)

Described in Chapter 8 "The Paired 2x2 Table"

Wald_CI_BonettPrice_paired_2x2(n, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

n: the observed counts (a 2x2 matrix)
alpha: the nominal level, e.g. 0.05 for 95% CIs

Value

An object of the contingencytables_result class, basically a subclass of base::list(). Use the utils::str() function to see the specific elements returned.

Examples

#> The Wald CI with Bonett-Price adjustment: estimate = -0.2857 (95% CI -0.5084 to -0.0134)

# Complete response before and after consolidation therapy
