KK Hurdle Poisson IVWC Inference for Count Responses

Inverse-variance weighted combined inference for count responses under a KK matching-on-the-fly design. The matched-pair component is fit with a hurdle-Poisson mixed model using pair random intercepts, and the reservoir component is fit with an ordinary Poisson log-link regression. The reported treatment effect is on the log-rate scale.

Computes the randomization distribution of the treatment effect estimate under the sharp null.

Whether compute_rand_two_sided_pval() is actually usable on this instance right now – FALSE exactly when it would stop(): an incidence-response instance with no custom randomization statistic and a design not eligible for design-randomization-based incidence inference (see private$should_use_design_randomization_for_incidence()). TRUE for every other case, including every non-incidence response type. Public, self-contained (only reads already-set instance state, no side effects), so InferenceSuite can check this before attempting the sentinel instead of relying on the stop() being silently swallowed into a pval = NA "ok" row – the single source of truth for both this check and compute_rand_two_sided_pval()'s own guard, so the two can never drift apart.

Computes a randomization-based p-value.

Value

When debug = FALSE (default), a numeric vector of length r. When debug = TRUE, a list with: values, errors (list of character vectors, one per iteration), warnings (list of character vectors, one per iteration), num_errors, num_warnings, prop_iterations_with_errors, prop_iterations_with_warnings, and prop_illegal_values.

A single logical.

Randomization p-value.
