## File Name: select_weight.R ## File version: 1.0 #' Compute confounding weights for the PCBSM. #' #' This function computes weights to be included in a PCBSM as a covariate accounting for unobserved confounding. Obtained by extracting response residuals from a probit model with grp as dependent variable and confounders and instruments as independent variables. #' #' @param df data.frame containing the data #' @param grp string containing the name of the column where the group membership variable is stored in df #' @param X vector of strings containing the name of confounders to be included in the model #' @param instr vector of strings containing the name of instrumental variables to be included in the model #' @param type.res string containing the type of glm residuals to be used. Default is "deviance" #' @param std boolean indicating whether residuals should be standardized. Default is TRUE #' @return A vector of weights to be included in a PCBSM #' @export select_weight <- function(df=NULL,grp=NULL,X=NULL,instr=NULL,type.res="deviance",std=F) { formu <- paste0(grp,"~") formu2 <- paste(X,sep="+",collapse="+") formu3 <- paste(instr,sep="+",collapse="+") if (!is.null(instr)) { formu2 <- paste(formu2,formu3,sep="+") } if (is.null(X)) { formu2 <- formu3 } formu <- paste(formu,formu2) logit_mod <- glm(formula = formu,data = df,family = binomial(link = "probit")) res <- residuals(logit_mod,type=type.res) if (std) { res <- rstandard(logit_mod,type='deviance') } return(res) }
