NEWS

TOSTER R package and jamovi module

TOSTER v0.8.3

• Change in the standard error formulation to Glass delta for independent samples
  • Hat tip to Paul Dudgeon for catching an error in the code that led to this development
  • Other small changes to standard error calcs (see vignettes for details)
• Small modification to plot_smd to catch errors when attempting to plot
• Brunner-Munzel updates
  • Added more warning messages
  • Changed default for simple_htest to 0.5 rather than 0

TOSTER v0.8.2

• Fixed error with describe method for minimal effects test for TOSTt objects.

TOSTER v0.8.1

• Small correction to the displayed equation for Cohen’s ds standard error. Thank you to Matthew B Jané for finding this error.
• Added bootstrap options such as boot_smd_calc and boot_ses_calc.
  • Many functions also now allow for different CI methods for bootstrapped results.

TOSTER v0.8.0

• Added Brunner-Munzel test
• Updated documentation to include lifecycle labels
• Created new function for two proportions tests (twoprop_test)
  • And power power_twoprop
• Created new function for power for correlations (power_z_cor)
• Deprecated old functions

TOSTER v0.7.1

• Fixing the ggplot2 error related to after_stat update from that package.
• Update documentation.

TOSTER v0.7.0

• Add correlation functions z_cor_test, boot_cor_test, corsum_test, boot_compare_cor, and simple_htest
• Add describe method to provide verbose output for analyses
  • Alternative describe_htest function for htest objects

TOSTER v0.6.0

• Changed Glass’s delta SE for paired samples (minor).
• Added smd_calc and ses_calc for just calculating the standardized effect sizes (no tests).
• Default CIs for for SMDs are now NCT rather than the Goulet method.
• compare_smd can be supplied with user provided standard errors.
• Add log_TOST and boot_log_TOST function for comparing ratios of means.
• Reduce the amount of text in the print methods

TOSTER v0.5.1

• Formatting requirements for jamovi (all superficial changes)

TOSTER v0.5.0

• Added “compare” functions.
  • compare_smd: Compare 2 SMDs from summary statistics
  • boot_compare_smd: Compare 2 SMDs from raw data
  • compare_cor: Compare 2 independent correlations
• Added additional SMD options
  • Confidence intervals can now be estimated using other methods
  • smd_ci can be used to set the confidence interval method
  • Glass’s delta can now be calculated using the glass argument
• Added additional standardized effect sizes for wilcox_TOST
  • ses argument can be set to “r”, “odds”, or “cstat”
  • Respectively, these will provide the rank-biserial correlation, odds, or concordance probability

TOSTER v0.4.2

• Fix to Cohen’s drm calculation

TOSTER v0.4.1

• jmv removed as dependency

TOSTER v0.4.0

“Avocado TOST” (Release date: 2022-02-05)

Changes:

• New t_TOST function
  • Generalized function for TOST for any type of t-test
  • S3 generic methods to print and plot results
• New power_t_TOST function
  • Generalized function for t_TOST power analysis
  • Outputs the an object of power.htest class
• Updated all jamovi functions to allow minimal effect tests
  • Direction of one-sided tests now allows
• Added equ_anova and equ_ftest
  • Now allows equivalence (also called non-inferiority)
• jamovi functions using t-test have more plotting options
• Error in powerTOSTtwo fixed when determining N
• All old t-test based TOST functions now have message telling users they are defunct
• All TOST procedures have text results changed to provide more appropriate feedback.

TOSTER v0.3.4

(Release date: 2018-08-05)

Changes:

• Added a verbose = FALSE option to all functions.
• Added Fisher’s z transformed CI to output of TOSTr.
• Cleaned up the text and numeric output of the functions.
• Renamed some variable names in the TOSTtwo.prop function for similarity with TOSTmeta.
• Added warnings and error messages for possible incorrect input when using the functions.

TOSTER v0.3.3

(Release date: 2018-05-08)

Changes:

• Error in order in which p-value 1 and p-value 2 were reported for TOSTr due to incorrect use of abs(r) in function. (thanks to Nils Kroemer and Dan Quintana)
• Fixed error in powerTOSTr function - instead of based on conversion to d, new function calculates directly from r and is more accurate.
• Added testthat folder and initial unit tests.

TOSTER v0.3.2

(Release date: 2018-04-14)

Changes:

• Error in sensitivity analyses of powerTOSTpaired.raw, powerTOSTone.raw, powerTOSTtwo.raw where output was in Cohen’s d - now changed to output in raw scores, added sd to examples. (thanks to Lisa DeBruine)
• Raw power functions still output ceiling N in message, but exact N in output value

TOSTER v0.3.1

(Release date: 2018-04-06)

Changes:

• Error in TOSTpaired.raw where t-test for TOST multiplied by sdiff (copied from TOSTpaired function) removed. CI were correct, but p-values did not match. Now tests are correct. (thanks to ontogenerator)
• Changed text in TOSTr function (text copied from t-test script now changed to correlation)
