20 ## @deftypefn {Function File} {[@var{pval}, @var{b}, @var{n}] =} sign_test (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{alt}) | |
21 ## For two matched-pair samples @var{x} and @var{y}, perform a sign test | |
22 ## of the null hypothesis PROB (@var{x} > @var{y}) == PROB (@var{x} < | |
23 ## @var{y}) == 1/2. Under the null, the test statistic @var{b} roughly | |
24 ## follows a binomial distribution with parameters @code{@var{n} = sum | |
25 ## (@var{x} != @var{y})} and @var{p} = 1/2. | |
3200 | 26 ## |
3454 | 27 ## With the optional argument @code{alt}, the alternative of interest |
28 ## can be selected. If @var{alt} is @code{"!="} or @code{"<>"}, the | |
29 ## null hypothesis is tested against the two-sided alternative PROB | |
30 ## (@var{x} < @var{y}) != 1/2. If @var{alt} is @code{">"}, the | |
31 ## one-sided alternative PROB (@var{x} > @var{y}) > 1/2 ("x is | |
3457 | 32 ## stochastically greater than y") is considered. Similarly for |
33 ## @code{"<"}, the one-sided alternative PROB (@var{x} > @var{y}) < 1/2 | |
34 ## ("x is stochastically less than y") is considered. The default is | |
35 ## the two-sided case. | |
3200 | 36 ## |
3454 | 37 ## The p-value of the test is returned in @var{pval}. |
3426 | 38 ## |
3200 | 39 ## If no output argument is given, the p-value of the test is displayed. |
