 ## Bug fixes
 
+* Fixed issue with `equivalence_test()` when ROPE range was not symmetrically
+  centered around zero (e.g., `range = c(-99, 0.1)`).
+
 * `model_parameters()` for `anova()` from mixed models now also includes the
   denominator degrees of freedom in the output (`df_error`).

 #'   This rule follows the "TOST rule", i.e. a two one-sided test procedure
-#'   (_Lakens 2017_). Following this rule, practical equivalence of an effect
-#'   (i.e. H0) is *rejected*, when the coefficient is statistically significant
-#'   *and* the narrow confidence intervals (i.e. `1-2*alpha`) *include* or
-#'   *exceed* the ROPE boundaries. Practical equivalence is assumed
-#'   (i.e. H0 "accepted") when the narrow confidence intervals are completely
-#'   inside the ROPE, no matter if the effect is statistically significant
-#'   or not. Else, the decision whether to accept or reject practical
-#'   equivalence is undecided.
