Hi everyone. I have a problem that I have been unable to determine either the best way to proceed and why the methods I'm trying to use sometimes fail. I'm using the pf() function in an optimization function to find a noncentrality parameter that leads to a specific value at a specified quantile. My goal is to have a general function that returns the noncentrality parameter that

Hello all. I'm building a package where I want to include a function from two different packages. In particular, I want to include mvrnorm and hyperg_2F1 from MASS and gsl, respectively (but the specific functions do not matter). With what I've tried after reading the "Specifying imports and exports" section from the "Writing R Extensions" manual, I get an error:

Hello all. It seems that the pf() function when used with noncentral parameters can behave badly at times. I've included some examples below, but what is happening is that with some combinations of df and ncp parameters, regardless of how large the quantile gets, the same probability value is returned. Upon first glance noncentral values greater than 200 may seem large, but they are in

Hi All. I want to tweak a few minor things inside of internal C code. I have my Win. XP machine set-up to build packages (including C code), but I'm having problems getting the package to run correctly. In particular, I want to modify a few things inside of pnbeta.c (namely errmax and itrmax), which is what the pbeta() function calls upon when there is a noncentral parameter. I copied the

Hi, I've been debuging the call disconnection problem in our architecture: PSTN---E1---OldPBX---E1---Asterisk This is our problem: -SIP user agent "A" calls a pstn phone "B". -"B" hangs up the call. -SIP user agent "A" starts listenning busytones... But the call still on. (and being payed). - Call only ends when it is correctly hanged up in the

Hi everyone, I use the boot package within the MBESS package to automate much of the hard part for folks interested in performing a (simple) mediation model. The function mediation() works well, except for a (probably) unrealistic artificial data set. When I apply the bootstrap I sometimes get: Error in t.star[r, ] <- res[[r]] which is (I think) due to Inf and -Inf and NaN values produced for

Hi everyone,I would like to test a mediation model, that has several control variables. More specifically, I would like to test the indirect effect with bootstrapping. However, all the packages I have found so far (e.g. MBESS) only allow testing a simple mediation model (One independent, one mediator, one dependent) so that I cannot include any controls. Can somebody help me? [[alternative HTML

Dear R fans ( and wiki fans), I am just writing a draft to introduce confidence intervals of various "effect sizes" to my students. Surely, I'll recommend the package MBESS in R. Currently, it means I have to recommend R's interface at first. As a statistics teacher in a dept of psychology, I often have to reply why not to teach SPSS. Psychologists and their students hate to

Dear all, I have submitted a new package called mpt to CRAN. It contains functions for fitting and testing multinomial processing tree (MPT) models, a class of statistical models for categorical data that involve latent parameters. These parameters are often interpreted as psychological processing variables. An introduction to these models is: Riefer, D.M., & Batchelder, W.H. (1988).

Hi, I'm pretty new to R and VERY new to RExcel. I've just finished setting it up and I'm having some problems. My first Issue is that if I attempt to use a function like RApply("sum", A1:A4) from within excel it gives me an error saying "There seems to be no R process connected to the server" I can then see an R Console open up and I get a message saying R

Dear, We are trying to determine the (one-sided) CI for the coefficient of variation in a small sample (say n = 10), with mean 100 and standard deviation 21. It appears though that the R-function ci.cv() and our simulation do not agree. The R-code: library(MBESS) n = 10 ci.cv(mean = 100, sd = 21, n = 10, conf.level = 0.9) U10.95 <- 0.3551754 ci.cv(mean = 100, sd = 21, n = 10, conf.level =

Dear R Community, I am pleased to announce that a new version of the mefa R package is available at the CRAN. mefa is a package for multivariate data handling in ecology and biogeography. It provides object classes to represent the data coded by samples, taxa and segments (i.e., subpopulations, repeated measures). It supports easy processing of the data along with relational data tables for

Dear list, The new package 'multivator' is now available on CRAN. This presents a multivariate generalization of the emulator package. The corresponding JSS article is: Robin K. S.

Dear all, There have been some recent major updates to the TractoR and RNiftyReg packages, which are available for medical image analysis applications. If you use R for these purposes, I hope you will find the updates useful. RNiftyReg is an image registration package, which provides a clean R-like interface to the NiftyReg library developed at University College London [1]. It is aimed at

Hello everybody, first I would like to apologize my consulting request on this help list but I couldn't find any ressources about consulties on the net. In our company we are searching on alternatives to SPSS and after a very short test, R could satisfy our needs completly. Unfortunately we are not able to cover all required features, like a little more sophisticated tabularization, an

Hello, I noticed a strange thing when attempting to upgrade a specific package (lavaan) from c2d4u and wondered if someone could confirm the problem. In short, apt seems to think that an older version from the "universe" repo is higher than the newer version from c2d4u. When I do apt-cache showpkg r-cran-lavaan I get the output at the bottom of this email. Then, I tried to force
