Create SCCS diagnostics thresholds

Source: R/SettingsObjects.R
createSccsDiagnosticThresholds.Rd

Threshold used when calling runSccsAnalyses() to determine if we pass or fail diagnostics.

Usage

createSccsDiagnosticThresholds(
  mdrrThreshold = 10,
  easeThreshold = 0.25,
  timeTrendMaxRatio = 1.1,
  rareOutcomeMaxPrevalence = 0.1,
  eventObservationDependenceNullBounds = c(0.5, 2),
  eventExposureDependenceNullBounds = c(0.8, 1.25)
)

Arguments

mdrrThreshold

What is the maximum allowed minimum detectable relative risk (MDRR)?

easeThreshold

What is the maximum allowed expected absolute systematic error (EASE).

timeTrendMaxRatio

The maximum global ratio between the observed and expected count for the time stability diagnostic.

rareOutcomeMaxPrevalence

The maximum allowed prevalence (proportion of people with the outcome) allowed when restricting to first outcome only.

eventObservationDependenceNullBounds

The bounds for the null hypothesis for the incidence rate ratio of the end-of-observation probe window.

eventExposureDependenceNullBounds

The bounds for the null hypothesis for the incidence rate of the pre-exposure window.

Value

An object of type SccsDiagnosticThresholds.
