Vargha and Delaney A measure
Computes the Vargha and Delaney A effect size measure.
VD.A(d, ...) ## S3 method for class 'formula' VD.A(formula,data=list(), ...) ## Default S3 method: VD.A(d,f, ...)
d |
a numeric vector giving either the data values (if |
f |
either a factor with two levels or a numeric vector of values |
formula |
a formula of the form |
data |
an optional matrix or data frame containing the variables in the formula |
... |
further arguments to be passed to or from methods. |
The function computes the Vargha and Delaney A effect size measure (Vargha and Delaney, 2000).
A list of class effsize containing the following components:
estimate |
the A statistics estimate |
magnitude |
a qualitative assessment of the magnitude of effect size |
method |
the method used, i.e. |
