Confidence Interval for A Single Intraclass Correlation (ICC)
-------------------------------------------------------------

        .^iccconf <icc> <k> <reps>, level(#)^


^Description^
^-----------^

^iccconf^ is an immediate command that computes a confidence interval for a 
single intraclass correlation (ICC).  The procedure is based on Rosner's approa
> ch
using the F-test. 

Three inputs are required:

       ^icc^    is the intraclass correlation. The input must be a value betwee
> n 0 and 1

        ^k^     is the number of subjects
   
       ^reps^   is the number of repeated assessments or "within" pair 
                 measurements. 

^Option^
^------^
       level(#)  The level option allows the user to modify the confidence limi
> t.
                 Use values between 0 and 1.  The default is .95.  


Example 
--------
To find a 95% confidence interval for an ICC of .914, based on 5 observations
with 2 replcations each:

     ^.iccconf .914 5 2^
     
     
For a 90% confidence interval for the above example, type:

     ^.iccconf .914 5 2, level(.9)^
