Arguments

treat

A numeric vector containing treatment status. Missing values are not allowed unless the corresponding entry in out is also missing. Only values of 0 or 1 are treated as actual treatment levels. Any other value is assumed to encode a value for which the outcome is missing and the corresponding outcome value is ignored.

covar

A data.frame containing the covariates to include in the working proportional odds model.

treat_form

The right-hand side of a regression formula for the working model of treatment probability as a function of covariates

out

A numeric vector containing the outcomes. Missing outcomes are allowed.

out_levels

A numeric vector containing all ordered levels of the outcome.

out_form

The right-hand side of a regression formula for the working proportional odds model. NOTE: THIS FORMULA MUST NOT SUPPRESS THE INTERCEPT.

out_model

Which R function should be used to fit the proportional odds model. Options are "polr" (from the MASS package), "vglm" (from the VGAM package), or "clm" (from the ordinal package).

out_weights

A vector of numeric weights with length equal to the length of out_levels.
