Returns the six representations of Bowers and Burton, "A More Powerful Test for Randomized Experiments" (working paper), as a named list of functions, each mapping a block's outcome vector to a per-unit score vector of the same length:

raw

the outcome itself (identity)

rank

within-block mid-ranks, riposte_rank()

mean_dist

mean L1 distance, riposte_mean_dist()

mean_rank_dist

mean L1 distance on ranks, riposte_mean_rank_dist()

max_dist

max distance to the block extremes, riposte_max_dist()

huber

Huber's psi of the MAD-standardised outcome, riposte_huber()

Usage

riposte_reps_default()

Value

a named list of representation functions.

Details

Pass your own list (or this one extended) to riposte_test() or riposte_components() to combine a different set. Each element must be a function of one numeric vector returning a numeric vector of the same length; it is applied within each block.

riposte_reps_proposal() for the earlier set with raw tanh(y).
