Random sample references

Source: R/sample_references.R
sample_references.Rd

sample_referencessamples n rows from the dataset with titles and abstracts either with or without replacement. This function is supposed to support the construct of a test dataset, as suggested by Vembye et al. (2024).

Usage

sample_references(
  data,
  n,
  with_replacement = FALSE,
  prob_vec = rep(1/n, nrow(data))
)

Arguments

data

Dataset containing the titles and abstracts wanted to be screened.

n

A non-negative integer giving the number of rows to choose.

with_replacement

Logical indicating if sampling should be done with of without replacement. Default is FALSE.

prob_vec

'A vector of probability weights for obtaining the elements of the vector being sampled.' Default is a vector of 1/n.

Value

A dataset with n rows.
