OnAge1.0.1 package

Test of Between-Group Differences in the Onset of Senescence

Implementation of a likelihood ratio test of differential onset of senescence between two groups. Given two groups with measures of age and of an individual trait likely to be subjected to senescence (e.g. body mass), 'OnAge' provides an asymptotic p-value for the null hypothesis that senescence starts at the same age in both groups. The package implements the procedure used in Douhard et al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/oik.04421>.
