#' Practical Significance (ps)
#'
#' Compute the probability of \strong{Practical Significance} (\strong{\emph{ps}}), which can be conceptualized as a unidirectional equivalence test. It returns the probability that effect is above a given threshold corresponding to a negligible effect in the median's direction. Mathematically, it is defined as the proportion of the posterior distribution of the median sign above the threshold.
#'
#' @inheritParams rope
#' @param threshold The threshold value that separates significant from negligible effect. If \code{"default"}, the range is set to \code{0.1} if input is a vector, and based on \code{\link[=rope_range]{rope_range()}} if a Bayesian model is provided.
#'
#' @return Values between 0.5 and 1 corresponding to the probability of practical significance (ps).
