Dear colleagues in R, Has anybody implemented the
1) (Goodman & Kruskal) lambda or the 2) (Thiel's) uncertainty coefficient statistics (in the asymmetric and symmetric forms), or is anyone aware that they might reside in some package? A search in the R archives does indicate that they are (somehow) part of the CoCo package, but I would rather not start learning how to transform my data into CoCo-format in order to access these functions, regardless of whether the CoCo versions are actually intended for calculating the actual statistic or for some other package internal purposes, as may sometimes be the case. Furthermore, it appears to me that the 'somers2' function in the Hmisc package applies Somers' D only to 2x2 and not larger tables. Am I mistaken, or does there exist somewhere else an implementation of the Somers' D statistic for the more general RxC tables? This was queried in 1999, but no response seemed then to be forthcoming.
