biasCorrectionTransform() is a transformation that can be applied to a matrix of data. The resulting matrix's variance is corrected for bias (Morey 2008; Baguley 2012; Cousineau and O’Brien 2014) ;

biasCorrectionTransform(dta, variables)

Arguments

dta

a data.frame containing the data in wide format;

variables

a vector of column names on which the transformation will be applied. the remaining columns will be left unchanged

Value

a data.frame of the same form as dta with the variables transformed.

This function is useful when passed to the argument preprocessfct of superb() where it performs a modification of the data matrix.
