Description: Provides functions to estimate the size-controlled phenotypic integration index, a novel method by Torices & Méndez (2014) to solve problems due to individual size when estimating integration (namely, larger individuals have larger components, which will drive a correlation between components only due to resource availability that might obscure the observed measures of integration). In addition, the package also provides the classical estimation by Wagner (1984), a bootstrapping method to calculate confidence intervals and a significance test for both integration indices.

Title: Common Public Health Statistics and their Confidence Intervals
Description: Functions to calculate commonly used public health statistics and
their confidence intervals using methods approved for use in the production
of Public Health England indicators such as those presented via Fingertips
(<http://fingertips.phe.org.uk/>). It provides functions for the generation
of proportions, crude rates, means, directly standardised rates, indirectly
standardised rates and standardised mortality ratios. Statistical methods
are referenced in the following publications.
