I have a longitudinal dataset in R with mood scores over a period which starts on Day 1 for all IDs. The end day ranges for every ID (between 26 and 35 days). Based on the mood scores, I would like to assign every participant (ID) as a case if the average mood score on Days -3 to -1 is 30% higher than the average mood score on Days +3 to +5. If not, then the person is a control.
The data looks like this:
ID. Day. Mood_Score
1. 1 5
1. 2. 3
1. 3. 3
1. 4. 4
1. 5. 5
...
1. 26 14
1. 27. 10
1. 28. 18
2. 1 3
2. 2. 3
2. 3. 5
2. 4. 4
2. 5. 3
...
2. 29. 9
2. 30. 8
2. 31. 7
Based on the above, ID#1 should be a case, and ID#2 should be a control.
