Description: Functions which facilitate harmonization of data from
        multiple different datasets. Data harmonization involves taking
        data sources with differing values, creating coding
        instructions to create a harmonized set of values, then making
        those data modifications. 'psHarmonize' will assist with data
        modification once the harmonization instructions are written.
        Coding instructions are written by the user to create a
        "harmonization sheet". This sheet catalogs variable names,
        domains (e.g. clinical, behavioral, outcomes), provides R code
        instructions for mapping or conversion of data, specifies the
        variable name in the harmonized data set, and tracks notes. The
        package will then harmonize the source datasets according to
        the harmonization sheet to create a harmonized dataset. Once
        harmonization is finished, the package also has functions that
        will create descriptive statistics using 'RMarkdown'. Data
        Harmonization guidelines have been described by Fortier I,
        Raina P, Van den Heuvel ER, et al. (2017)
        <doi:10.1093/ije/dyw075>. Additional details of our R package
        have been described by Stephen JJ, Carolan P, Krefman AE, et
        al. (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.patter.2024.101003>.
