Overview

About

Maintained by James PustejovskyCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Provides a set of tools for estimating hierarchical linear models and effect sizes based on data from single-case designs. Functions are provided for calculating standardized mean difference effect sizes that are directly comparable to standardized mean differences estimated from between-subjects randomized experiments, as described in Hedges, Pustejovsky, and Shadish (2012) DOI:10.1002/jrsm.1052; Hedges, Pustejovsky, and Shadish (2013) DOI:10.1002/jrsm.1086; Pustejovsky, Hedges, and Shadish (2014) DOI:10.3102/1076998614547577; and Chen, Pustejovsky, Klingbeil, and Van Norman (2023) DOI:10.1016/j.jsp.2023.02.002. Includes an interactive web interface.

Changes in 0.7.4

Updated DESCRIPTION to list all packages used in /demo scripts. The snow, doSNOW, foreach, iterators, reshape, and rlecuyer packages are included in SUGGESTS only because of legacy code used in the original simulation studies that motivated the scdhlm package.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("scdhlm", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("jepusto/scdhlm")

Development version from jepusto/scdhlm. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-scdhlm

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-scdhlm

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-scdhlm

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
