Simulation-based sensitivity analysis for causal mediation studies. It numerically and graphically evaluates the sensitivity of causal mediation analysis results to the presence of unmeasured pretreatment confounding. The proposed method has primary advantages over existing methods. First, using an unmeasured pretreatment confounder conditional associations with the treatment, mediator, and outcome as sensitivity parameters, the method enables users to intuitively assess sensitivity in reference to prior knowledge about the strength of a potential unmeasured pretreatment confounder. Second, the method accurately reflects the influence of unmeasured pretreatment confounding on the efficiency of estimation of the causal effects. Third, the method can be implemented in different causal mediation analysis approaches, including regression-based, simulation-based, and propensity score-based methods. It is applicable to both randomized experiments and observational studies.

Biodiversity areas, especially primary forest, serve a multitude of functions for local economy, regional functionality of the ecosystems as well as the global health of our planet. Recently, adverse changes in human land use practices and climatic responses to increased greenhouse gas emissions, put these biodiversity areas under a variety of different threats. The present package helps to analyse a number of biodiversity indicators based on freely available geographical datasets. It supports computational efficient routines that allow the analysis of potentially global biodiversity portfolios. The primary use case of the package is to support evidence based reporting of an organization's effort to protect biodiversity areas under threat and to identify regions were intervention is most duly needed.

This package provides a class for multi-companion matrices with methods for arithmetic and factorization. A method for generation of multi-companion matrices with prespecified spectral properties is provided, as well as some utilities for periodically correlated and multivariate time series models. See Boshnakov (2002) <doi:10.1016/S0024-3795(01)00475-X> and Boshnakov & Iqelan (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9892.2009.00617.x>.

Novel method to unbiasedly include studies with Non-statistically Significant Unreported Effects (NSUEs) in a meta-analysis. First, the function calculates the interval where the unreported effects (e.g., t-values) should be according to the threshold of statistical significance used in each study. Afterward, the method uses maximum likelihood techniques to impute the expected effect size of each study with NSUEs, accounting for between-study heterogeneity and potential covariates. Multiple imputations of the NSUEs are then randomly created based on the expected value, variance, and statistical significance bounds. Finally, it conducts a restricted-maximum likelihood random-effects meta-analysis separately for each set of imputations, and it performs estimations from these meta-analyses. Please read the reference in metansue for details of the procedure.

This package provides a set of tools for likelihood-based estimation, model selection and testing of two- and three-range shift and migration models for animal movement data as described in Gurarie et al. (2017) <doi: 10.1111/1365-2656.12674>. Provided movement data (X, Y and Time), including irregularly sampled data, functions estimate the time, duration and location of one or two range shifts, as well as the ranging area and auto-correlation structure of the movment. Tests assess, for example, whether the shift was "significant", and whether a two-shift migration was a true return migration.

This package contains functions that allow Bayesian meta-analysis (1) with binomial data, counts(y) and total counts (n) or, (2) with user-supplied point estimates and associated variances. Case (1) provides an analysis based on the logit transformation of the sample proportion. This methodology is also appropriate for combining data from sample surveys and related sources. The functions can calculate the corresponding similarity matrix. More details can be found in Cahoy and Sedransk (2023), Cahoy and Sedransk (2022) <doi:10.1007/s42519-018-0027-2>, Evans and Sedransk (2001) <doi:10.1093/biomet/88.3.643>, and Malec and Sedransk (1992) <doi:10.1093/biomet/79.3.593>.

This package provides global hypothesis tests, multiple testing procedures and simultaneous confidence intervals for multiple linear contrasts of regression coefficients in a single generalized estimating equation (GEE) model or across multiple GEE models.

This package provides a new method to implement clustering from multiple modality data of certain samples, the function M2SMjF() jointly factorizes multiple similarity matrices into a shared sub-matrix and several modality private sub-matrices, which is further used for clustering. Along with this method, we also provide function to calculate the similarity matrix and function to evaluate the best cluster number from the original data.

This package provides functions to analyze coherence, boundary clumping, and turnover following the pattern-based metacommunity analysis of Leibold and Mikkelson 2002 <doi:10.1034/j.1600-0706.2002.970210.x>. The package also includes functions to visualize ecological networks, and to calculate modularity as a replacement to boundary clumping.

This package provides a collection of statistical tests for the detection of differential item functioning (DIF) in multistage tests. Methods entail logistic regression, an adaptation of the simultaneous item bias test (SIBTEST), and various score-based tests. The presented tests provide itemwise test for DIF along categorical, ordinal or metric covariates. Methods for uniform and non-uniform DIF effects are available depending on which method is used.

This package implements the Maki (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006> cointegration test that allows for an unknown number of structural breaks. The test detects cointegration relationships in the presence of up to five structural breaks in the intercept and/or slope coefficients. Four different model specifications are supported: level shifts, level shifts with trend, regime shifts, and trend with regime shifts. The method is described in Maki (2012) "Tests for cointegration allowing for an unknown number of breaks" <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006>.

This package provides an extension of the shadow-test approach to computerized adaptive testing (CAT) implemented in the TestDesign package for the assessment framework involving multiple tests administered periodically throughout the year. This framework is referred to as the Multiple Administrations Adaptive Testing (MAAT) and supports multiple item pools vertically scaled and multiple phases (stages) of CAT within each test. Between phases and tests, transitioning from one item pool (and associated constraints) to another is allowed as deemed necessary to enhance the quality of measurement.
