New package LindenmayeR with initial version 0.1-0
Package: LindenmayeR
Type: Package
Title: Functions to Explore L-Systems (Lindenmayer Systems)
Version: 0.1-0
Date: 2014-08-12
Description: Lindenmayer or L-systems are parallel rewriting systems which can be used to simulate biological forms and certain kinds of fractals. Briefly, in an L-system a series of symbols in a string are replaced iteratively according to rules to give a more complex string. Eventually, the symbols are translated into turtle graphics for plotting. Wikipedia has a very good introduction: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-system This package provides basic functions for exploring L-systems.

Package PowerTOST updated to version 1.1-13 with previous version 1.1-12 dated 2014-07-02

Title: Power and Sample size based on two one-sided t-tests (TOST) for (bio)equivalence studies
Description: Contains functions to calculate power and sample size for various study designs used for bioequivalence studies. See function known.designs() for study designs covered. Moreover the package contains functions for power and sample size based on 'expected' power in case of uncertain (estimated) variability. ----- Added are functions for the power and sample size for the ratio of two means with normally distributed data on the original scale (based on Fieller's confidence ('fiducial') interval). ----- Contains further functions for power and sample size calculations based on non-inferiority t-test. This is not a TOST procedure but eventually useful if the question of 'non-superiority' must be evaluated. The power and sample size calculations based on non-inferiority test may also performed via 'expected' power in case of uncertain (estimated) variability. ----- Contains functions power.scABEL() and sampleN.scABEL() to calculate power and sample size for the BE decision via scaled (widened) BE acceptance limits based on simulations. Contains functions power.RSABE() and sampleN.RSABE() to calculate power and sample size for the BE decision via reference scaled ABE criterion according to the FDA procedure based on simulations. Contains further functions power.NTIDFDA() and sampleN.NTIDFDA() to calculate power and sample size for the BE decision via the FDA procedure for NTID's based on simulations.

Package random.polychor.pa updated to version 1.1.4-1 with previous version 1.1.4 dated 2014-08-05

Title: A Parallel Analysis With Polychoric Correlation Matrices
Description: The Function performs a parallel analysis using simulated polychoric correlation matrices. The nth-percentile of the eigenvalues distribution obtained from both the randomly generated and the real data polychoric correlation matrices is returned. A plot comparing the two types of eigenvalues (real and simulated) will help determine the number of real eigenvalues that outperform random data. The function is based on the idea that if real data are non-normal and the polychoric correlation matrix is needed to perform a Factor Analysis, then the Parallel Analysis method used to choose a non-random number of factors should also be based on randomly generated polychoric correlation matrices and not on Pearson correlation matrices. Random data sets are simulated assuming or a uniform or a multinomial distribution or via the bootstrap method of resampling (i.e., random permutations of cases). Also Multigroup Parallel analysis is made available for random (uniform and multinomial distribution and with or without difficulty factor) and bootstrap methods. An option to choose between default or full output is also available as well as a parameter to print Fit Statistics (Chi-squared, TLI, RMSEA, RMR and BIC) for the factor solutions indicated by the Parallel Analysis.

Package psych updated to version 1.4.8.11 with previous version 1.4.8 dated 2014-08-10

Title: Procedures for Psychological, Psychometric, and Personality Research
Description: A number of routines for personality, psychometrics and experimental psychology. Functions are primarily for scale construction using factor analysis, cluster analysis and reliability analysis, although others provide basic descriptive statistics. Item Response Theory is done using factor analysis of tetrachoric and polychoric correlations. Functions for simulating particular item and test structures are included. Several functions serve as a useful front end for structural equation modeling. Graphical displays of path diagrams, factor analysis and structural equation models are created using basic graphics. Some of the functions are written to support a book on psychometrics as well as publications in personality research. For more information, see the personality-project.org/r webpage.
