\alias{icc}
\title{Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)}
\description{
Computes the ICC of several series of measurements, for example in an interrater agreement study. Two types of ICC are proposed: consistency and agreement.
}
\usage{
icc(data)
}
\arguments{
\item{data}{n*p matrix or dataframe, n subjects p raters}
}
\details{
Missing data are omitted in a listwise way. The "agreement" ICC is the ratio of the subject variance by the sum of the subject variance, the rater variance and the residual; it is generally prefered. The "consistency" version is the ratio of the subject variance by the sum of the subject variance and the residual; it may be of interest when estimating the reliability of pre/post variations in measurements.
}
\value{
A list with :
\item{$nb.subjects}{number of subjects under study}
\item{$nb.raters}{number of raters}
\item{$subject.variance}{subject variance}
\item{$rater.variance}{rater variance}
\item{$residual}{residual variance}
\item{$icc.consistency}{Intra class correlation coefficient, "consistency" version}
\item{$icc.agreement}{Intra class correlation coefficient, "agreement" version}
}

#library(boot)
#icc.boot <- function(data,x) {icc(data[x,])[[7]]}
#res <- boot(expsy[,c(12,14,16)],icc.boot,1000)
#quantile(res$t,c(0.025,0.975)) # two-sided bootstrapped confidence interval of icc (agreement)
