Check for non-systematic discounting

Source: R/methods.R
nonsys.Rd

Check for non-systematic discounting, per the Johnson & Bickel (2008) criteria. These are:

  • C1: No indifference point can exceed the previous by more than 0.2

  • C2: Last indifference point must be lower than first by at least 0.1

Usage

nonsys(obj)

Arguments

obj

Either a data.frame with columns indiff and del, or a discounting model of class td_bcnm or td_ipm, fit using the "model-free" discount function.

Value

Named logical vector specifying whether nonsystematic discounting is exhibited according to C1/C2.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# On a model
data("td_bc_single_ptpt")
mod <- td_bcnm(td_bc_single_ptpt, discount_function = 'model-free')
any(nonsys(mod))

# On a dataframe
data("td_ip_simulated_ptpt")
any(nonsys(td_ip_simulated_ptpt))

# Artificial case of nonsystematic discounting
nonsys(data.frame(del = 1:3, indiff = c(0.5, 0.8, 0.6))) # Both TRUE
} # }
