What to do about lambda_GC? #40
Comments
Can you elaborate on what you mean by this? It looks like you are calculating lambda_GC using the Z-scores. What do you mean by 'other statistics'? |
I think the one usually reported in papers is the one for X2, right? |
I'm no expert, but it is my understanding that the inflation factor is based on the chi-square distribution (I think that is what you mean by X2). It looks like getLambdaGC may be calculating the square root of the inflation factor. Can you verify this? I calculated the inflation factor in my data using two ways (z-score, p-value) and compared it to what getLambdaGC output:
|
Yes, currently This is also my understanding that it is usually reported for chi-squares (X2), therefore this question/issue. |
Also, maybe think about exporting the function to get the lambda_GC, which for now can be run using |
Currently, lambda_GC(X2) = lambda_GC(Z)^2.
This can be confusing when comparing Q-Q plots using different statistics.
