Please see the package’s website for updates, vignettes, and other details about the package.
SimplyAgree is an R package, and jamovi module, created to make
agreement and reliability analyses easier for the average researcher.
The functions within this package include simple tests of agreement
(agree_test), agreement analysis for nested
(agree_nest) and replicate data (agree_reps),
and provide robust analyses of reliability (reli_stats). In
addition, this package contains a set of functions to help when planning
studies looking to assess measurement agreement
(blandPowerCurve).
You can install the most up-to-date version of
SimplyAgree from GitHub with:
devtools::install_github("arcaldwell49/SimplyAgree")We are happy to receive bug reports, suggestions, questions, and (most of all) contributions to fix problems and add features. Pull Requests for contributions are encouraged.
Here are some simple ways in which you can contribute (in the increasing order of commitment):
