Hello,

Another option is to use stats::t.test

t.test(x)$statistic

Or, if you want to test against a beta0 != 0,

t.test(x, mu = beta0)$statistic


But in this case the estimator is the estimator for the mean value.

Hope this helps,

Thanks Patrick, so in conclusion this is fine?
z-score=Beta/StdErr

Guessing for Ana, but no, that's a different meaning. Beta/StdErr is a
z statistic--a test statistic against (usually) the tails of the unit
normal distribution. So like a t-test with infinite df.

Hello,

By z-scores do you mean function help('scale')?

Hope this helps,

Hi Rui,

Thank you for getting back to me. Is there is a better way to
calculate Z scores if I have p values, SE and Beta?

Thanks
Ana

Hello,

That gives the *absolute* t-scores. If it's all you need/want, then the
answer is yes, you can.

Hope this helps,

Hello,

Can I apply the quantile function qt() this way?
qt(pvals/2, 406-34, lower.tail = F)
to get the T-scores?

Thanks
Ama
