title: 'MiCT: Minimal Important Change and Threshold Estimation'
version: 2.0.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.MiCT
abstract: Provides methods for estimating minimal important change (MIC) and interpretation
  thresholds for multi-item questionnaires and single-item continuous or ordinal measures.
  Methods include predictive modelling, adjusted predictive modelling, improved adjusted
  predictive modelling using anchor reliability, confirmatory factor analysis for
  anchor reliability, longitudinal confirmatory factor analysis for MIC estimation,
  longitudinal confirmatory factor analysis-based MIC estimation for single-item measures,
  and confirmatory factor analysis-based threshold estimation for single-item and
  multi-item measures. Implemented methods include those developed by Terluin et al.
