signal.to.noise.R2 {MBESS}R Documentation

Signal to noise using squared multiple correlation coefficient

Description

Function that calculates five different signal-to-noise ratios using the squared multiple correlation coefficient.

Usage

signal.to.noise.R2(R.Square, N, p)

Arguments

R.Square usual estimate of the squared multiple correlation coefficient (with no adjustments)
N sample size
p number of predictors

Details

The method of choice is phi2.UMVUE.NL, but it requires p of 5 or more. In situations where p < 5, it is suggested that phi2.UMVUE.L be used.

Value

phi2.hat Basic estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio using the usual estimate of the squared multiple correlation coefficient: phi2.hat=R2/(1-R2)
phi2.adj.hat Estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio using the usual adjusted R Square in place of R Square: phi2.hat=Adj.R2 /(1-Adj.R2)
phi2.UMVUE Muirhead's (1985) unique minimum variance unbiased estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio (Muirhead uses theta-U): see reference or code for formula
phi2.UMVUE.L Muirhead's (1985) unique minimum variance unbiased linear estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio (Muirhead uses theta-L): see reference or code for formula
phi2.UMVUE.NL Muirhead's (1985) unique minimum variance unbiased nonlinear estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio (Muirhead uses theta-NL); requires the number of predictors to be greater than five: see reference or code for formula
