Combined p-value from Tippett's method

Description

This function computes the combined p-value based on two parameter estimates using Tippett's method (also known as the minimum method)

Usage

pTippett(mu = 0, t1, t2, se1, se2, alternative = "greater")

Arguments

mu

Null value. Defaults to 0

t1

Parameter estimate from trial 1

t2

Parameter estimate from trial 2

se1

Standard error of the parameter estimate from trial 1

se2

Standard error of the parameter estimate from trial 2

alternative

One-sided alternative hypothesis. Can be either "greater" or "less". Defaults to "greater"

Value

The combined p-value based on Tippett's method
