Performs unconditional exact tests and power calculations for 2x2 contingency tables. For comparing two independent proportions, performs Barnard's test (1945) using the original CSM test (Barnard (1947)), using Fisher's p-value referred to as Boschloo's test (1970), or using a Z-statistic (Suissa and Shuster (1985)). For comparing two binary proportions, performs unconditional exact test using McNemar's Z-statistic (Berger and Sidik (2003)), using McNemar's Z-statistic with continuity correction, or using CSM test. Calculates confidence intervals for the difference in proportion.
Calculates exact tests and confidence intervals for one-sample binomial and one- or two-sample Poisson cases (see Fay (2010) <doi:10.32614/rj-2010-008>).
Allows the user to determine minimum sample sizes that achieve target size and power at a specified alternative. For more information, see â Exact samples sizes for clinical trials subject to size and power constraintsâ by Lloyd, C.J. (2022) Preprint <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.11828.94085>.
This package performs the exact test on whether there is a difference between two survival curves. Exact confidence interval for the hazard ratio can also be generated for the Cox model.
This package provides a tool for conducting exact parametric regression-based causal mediation analysis of binary outcomes as described in Samoilenko, Blais and Lefebvre (2018) <doi:10.1353/obs.2018.0013>; Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2021) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwab055>; and Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2023) <doi:10.1002/sim.9621>.
Calculates conditional exact tests (Fisher's exact test, Blaker's exact test, or exact McNemar's
test) and unconditional exact tests (including score-based tests on differences in proportions, ratios of proportions, and odds ratios, and Boshcloo's test) with appropriate matching confidence intervals, and provides power and sample size calculations. Gives melded confidence intervals for the binomial case (Fay, et al, 2015, <DOI:10.1111/biom.12231>). Gives boundary-optimized rejection region test (Gabriel, et al, 2018, <DOI:10.1002/sim.7579>), an unconditional exact test for the situation where the controls are all expected to fail. Gives confidence intervals compatible with exact McNemar's
or sign tests (Fay and Lumbard, 2021, <DOI:10.1002/sim.8829>). For review of these kinds of exact tests see Fay and Hunsberger (2021, <DOI:10.1214/21-SS131>).

Compute an exact CI for the population mean under a random effects model. The routines implement the algorithm described in Michael, Thronton, Xie, and Tian (2017) <https://haben-michael.github.io/research/Exact_Inference_Meta.pdf>.
Life Table Response Experiments (LTREs) are a method of comparative demographic analysis. The purpose is to quantify how the difference or variance in vital rates (stage-specific survival, growth, and fertility) among populations contributes to difference or variance in the population growth rate, "lambda." We provide functions for one-way fixed design and random design LTRE, using either the classical methods that have been in use for several decades, or an fANOVA-based
exact method that directly calculates the impact on lambda of changes in matrix elements, for matrix elements and their interactions. The equations and descriptions for the classical methods of LTRE analysis can be found in Caswell (2001, ISBN: 0878930965), and the fANOVA-based
exact methods are described in Hernandez et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.14065>. We also provide some demographic functions, including generation time from Bienvenu and Legendre (2015) <doi:10.1086/681104>. For implementation of exactLTRE
where all possible interactions are calculated, we use an operator matrix presented in Poelwijk, Krishna, and Ranganathan (2016) <doi:10.1371/journal.pcbi.1004771>.
This package contains all data sets for Exam PA: Predictive Analytics at <https://exampa.net/>.
Construct the admissible exact intervals for the binomial proportion, the Poisson mean and the total number of subjects with a certain attribute or the total number of the subjects for the hypergeometric distribution. Both one-sided and two-sided intervals are of interest. This package can be used to calculate the intervals constructed methods developed by Wang (2014) <doi:10.5705/ss.2012.257> and Wang (2015) <doi:10.1111/biom.12360>.
This package implements comprehensive test data engineering methods as described in Shojima (2022, ISBN:978-9811699856). Provides statistical techniques for engineering and processing test data: Classical Test Theory (CTT) with reliability coefficients for continuous ability assessment; Item Response Theory (IRT) including Rasch, 2PL, and 3PL models with item/test information functions; Latent Class Analysis (LCA) for nominal clustering; Latent Rank Analysis (LRA) for ordinal clustering with automatic determination of cluster numbers; Biclustering methods including infinite relational models for simultaneous clustering of examinees and items without predefined cluster numbers; and Bayesian Network Models (BNM) for visualizing inter-item dependencies. Features local dependence analysis through LRA and biclustering, parameter estimation, dimensionality assessment, and network structure visualization for educational, psychological, and social science research.
This package provides a class exam.cls
, which eases production of exams. Simple commands are provided to:
create questions, parts of questions, subparts of parts, and subsubparts of subparts, all with optional point values;
create a grading table, indexed either by question number (listing each question and the total possible points for that question) or by page number (listing each page with points and the total possible points for that page);
create headers and footers that are each specified in three parts: one part to be left justified, one part to be centered, and one part to be right justified, in the manner of
fancyhdr
.
Headers and/or footers can be different on the first page of the exam, can be different on the last page of the exam, and can vary depending on whether the page number is odd or even, or on whether the current page continues a question from a previous page, or on whether the last question on the current page continues onto the following page.
Multiple line headers and/or footers are allowed, and it's easy to increase the part of the page devoted to headers and/or footers to allow for this.
Note that the bundle exams
also provides a file exam.cls
; the two bundles therefore clash, and should not be installed on the same system.
This package provides various examples.
This is a package for exact Confidence Intervals for the difference between two independent or dependent proportions.
Automatic generation of quizzes or individual questions as (interactive) forms within rmarkdown or quarto documents based on R/exams exercises.
Automatic Generation of Exams in R for Sakai'. Question templates in the form of the exams package (see <https://www.r-exams.org/>) are transformed into XML format required by Sakai'.
The examz
document class builds on the exam
document class. An author may use the class exactly as the exam
class, but there are also additional features. The document class facilitates the writing of questions with random elements, the creation of multiple versions of an exam, and the use of separate files as question banks.
The main aim is to further facilitate the creation of exercises based on the package exams by Grün, B., and Zeileis, A. (2009) <doi:10.18637/jss.v029.i10>. Creating effective student exercises involves challenges such as creating appropriate data sets and ensuring access to intermediate values for accurate explanation of solutions. The functionality includes the generation of univariate and bivariate data including simple time series, functions for theoretical distributions and their approximation, statistical and mathematical calculations for tasks in basic statistics courses as well as general tasks such as string manipulation, LaTeX/HTML
formatting and the editing of XML task files for Moodle'.
Researchers often use the bootstrap to understand a sample drawn from a population with unknown distribution. The exact bootstrap method is a practical tool for exploring the distribution of small sample size data. For a sample of size n, the exact bootstrap method generates the entire space of n to the power of n resamples and calculates all realizations of the selected statistic. The exactamente package includes functions for implementing two bootstrap methods, the exact bootstrap and the regular bootstrap. The exact_bootstrap()
function applies the exact bootstrap method following methodologies outlined in Kisielinska (2013) <doi:10.1007/s00180-012-0350-0>. The regular_bootstrap()
function offers a more traditional bootstrap approach, where users can determine the number of resamples. The e_vs_r()
function allows users to directly compare results from these bootstrap methods. To augment user experience, exactamente includes the function exactamente_app()
which launches an interactive shiny web application. This application facilitates exploration and comparison of the bootstrap methods, providing options for modifying various parameters and visualizing results.
