Penfield, Douglas A.; Koffler, Stephen L. – 1974
Four nonparametric alternatives to the parametric Bartlett test are presented for handling the K-sample equality of variance problem. The two sample Siegel-Tukey Test, Mood Coefficient of Alienation Test, and Klotz Test are extended to the multisample situation by the methods of Puri. A fourth alternative involving a Q-statistic procedure…

Priest, Robert F.; Butler, Richard P. – 1975
The advantages of Goodman's Gamma, a measure of association, are discussed in reference to the Pearson coefficient of contingency. Both theoretical and practical advantages and disadvantages are discussed. An empirical comparison of the two measures shows that gamma detects significant relationships which chi square does not, and that gamma is…

Halderson, Judith S.; Glasnapp, Douglas R. – 1974
The primary purpose of the present study was to investigate empirically the effect of multiple hypothesis testing on error rates in factorial ANOVA designs under a variety of controlled conditions. The per comparison, per experiment, and experimentwise error rates were investigated for three hypothesis testing procedures. The specific conditions…

Huberty, Carl J. – 1974
There are two distinct but related purposes for carrying out a "discriminant analysis": (1) discrimination, and (2) classification. The primary objective of this paper was to review the outputs of selected computer programs often used to carry out a "discriminant analysis" with respect to these two purposes. Information provided by the programs on…

Calkins, Dick S. – 1974
The mathematical derivation of the statistics used for inference in some linear models assumes that the values of the independent variables are measured without error. This assumption is often disregarded when these models are utilized in research. This study is an investigation of the consequences of the violation of this assumption for one…

Bessent, Authella; Jennings, Earl – 1975
The intent of the study was to determine the extent to which test statistics computed by the unweighted means analysis are F-distributed. Applicability criteria were sought in terms of the number of factor levels and the degree to which cell frequencies differ. The unweighted means analysis, a frequently used approximate analysis, was contrasted…

Huberty, Carl J. – 1974
Discriminant analysis is reviewed in terms of: (1) formulations, (2) interpretations, (3) uses, (4) issues and problems in applications, (5) recent developments and conceptualizations, and (6) general references and computer programs. Four aspects of a discriminant analysis are considered. They are: (1) separation: determining intergroup…
