Estimation of the total of the weighted potential outcomes of each mode of response \(t_{y\phi}\).

Usage

estim_tot_phi_y(Yobs, modes, pi, p1, p2, phi = rep(0.5, length(Yobs)))

Arguments

Yobs

vector of the observed outcomes. (numeric vector of size N the size of the population).

modes

vector of the selected mode of each unit. The first mode of the protocol is defined as "m1", the second as "m2" (character vector or factor of size N).

pi

vector containing the first-order inclusion probabilities (numeric vector of size N).

p1

vector containing the true or estimated selection probabilities of the first mode (numeric vector of size N).

p2

vector containing the true or estimated selection probabilities of the second mode (numeric vector of size N).

phi

optional vector containing weights for the total. The values must be between 0 and 1. The more the weight is close to one, the more the first mode of reponse is important (numeric vector size N).

Value

the estimation of the total \(t_{y\phi}\) (scalar).
