Tiebreak settings

Usage

pf_tiebreak_config(
  tie_band = 0.05,
  tie_high = 0.95,
  keys = c("cov_all", "has_mission")
)

Arguments

tie_band

Candidates within this much of the top score are in contention. Matches npmatch's np_config()$tie_band.

tie_high

Only tiebreak when the top score is at least this. npmatch defaults to 0.95; setting it to 0 widens the tiebreak to every near-tie, which on the audit sample raises the gain from +1 to +3 of 61 grants but is a change to selection behaviour that 61 grants cannot justify.

keys

Ordered tiebreak keys, applied in sequence until one separates the contenders. cov_all is the purpose comparison; has_mission is whether the candidate files a Form 990 with a mission statement at all.

Value

A list.
