  <dc:title>Linear and Non-Linear AUC for Discounting Data</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package discAUC version 1.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Area under the curve (AUC; Myerson et al., 2001) &lt;doi:10.1901/jeab.2001.76-235&gt; 
  is a popular measure used in discounting research. Although the calculation of
  AUC is standardized, there are differences in AUC based on some assumptions. 
  For example, Myerson et al. (2001) &lt;doi:10.1901/jeab.2001.76-235&gt; 
  assumed that (with delay discounting data) a researcher would impute an
  indifference point at zero delay equal to the value of the larger, later outcome.
  However, this practice is not clearly followed. This imputed zero-delay indifference
  point plays an important role in log and ordinal versions of AUC.
  Ordinal and log versions of AUC are described by Borges et al. (2016)&lt;doi:10.1002/jeab.219&gt;. 
  The package can calculate all three versions of AUC [and includes a new version: IHS(AUC)],
  impute indifference points when x = 0, calculate ordinal AUC in the case of Halton
  sampling of x-values, and account for probability discounting AUC.</dc:description>
