Usage

une689_distribution_type(pval_normal, pval_lognormal, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

pval_normal

Numeric. p-value of the normality test on ED.

pval_lognormal

Numeric. p-value of the normality test on log(ED).

alpha

Numeric. Significance level (default 0.05).

Value

Character scalar: one of "Lognormal", "Normal" or "Neither" (in English, the default), or the equivalent Spanish labels when expoquimr_lang("es") is active.

Examples

une689_distribution_type(pval_normal = 0.03, pval_lognormal = 0.20)
#> [1] "Lognormal"
