  <dc:title>Latent True-Score and Target-Population Anchored Geometric SMD</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package ltgsmd version 0.2.2</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Implements the latent true-score and target-population
    anchored geometric standardized mean difference (LTG-SMD) framework
    for two-group effect-size analysis. Provides plug-in estimation,
    analytic delta-method confidence intervals using a sample
    fourth-moment plug-in, bias-corrected and bias-corrected-accelerated
    nonparametric bootstrap confidence intervals with study x group
    stratification, denominator-sensitivity profiles, and multi-site
    meta-analytic wrappers. Includes denominator-diagnostic reporting,
    a pluggable reliability estimator interface, and an explicit
    interface for specifying the target reference distribution.
    Companion software to the methodological paper "The Denominator
    Chooses the Estimand: A Target-Population True-Score Framework for
    Standardized Mean Differences" (Nakamura, in press, Psychological
    Methods).</dc:description>
