Cousineau-Laurencelle's lambda correction for cluster-randomized sampling

Source: R/CousineauLaurencelleLambda.R

The functions CousineauLaurencelleLambda() returns the correction factor for cluster-randomized sampling. This correction is then used in a variety of ways, for example, to get the effective number of participants (in a power study) or to correct a t-test. See cl16superb.

Arguments

paramvector

A vector with, in that order, the intra-class correlation r, the number of clusters, then the number of participants in all the clusters.

Value
