cTOST OverviewThis repository holds the cTOST R package. This package contains the function tost which provides an assessment of equivalence in the univariate framework based on the state-of-the-art Two One-Sided Tests (TOST). In addition, the package contains the functions atost and dtost, two corrective procedures applied to the TOST in the univariate framework in order to ensure the preservation of the Type I error rate at the desired nominal level and a uniform increase in power. These two functions output an assessment of equivalence in the univariate framework after their respective corrections is applied. More details can be found in Boulaguiem et al. (2023) that you can access via this link.
The cTOST package is available on GitHub at the moment. It is subject to ongoing updates that may lead to stability issues.
In order to install the package, it is required to pre-install the devtools dependency. Run the following command if you do not have it already installed:
The package is then installed with the following command:
Note that Windows users are assumed that have Rtools installed (if this is not the case, please visit this link.
