I am attempting to perform a kappa statistic test on 2 indices I created. I've found that there are multiple packages in R that have functions for this and am trying to compare two functions: the epi.kappa() function in the epiR package and the cohen.kappa() function from the psych package.
I was able to successfully use the cohen.kappa() function with my data however, I continue to get errors when using the epi.kappa() function. My code is as follows
library(epiR)
kap.dat = matrix(c(275,78,305,154),nrow=2,byrow=TRUE)
colnames(kap.dat) = c("I1-0","I1-1")
rownames(kap.dat) = c("I2-0","I2-1")
epi.kappa(kap.dat,method="cohen",alternative= "two.sided",conf.level=0.95)
The error I get is:
Error in epi.kappa(kap.dat,method="cohen",alternative="two.sided", :
object `pO.p` not found
Check that you've got the latest version of epiR installed and update if necessary. Latest version on CRAN is 2.0.50. Type help(epi.about) once package loaded --- version of package will be shown at the bottom of the page.
