Rank-Sum Tests for Clustered Data
The Wilcoxon rank-sum test is widely used to test the equality of two populations, because it makes fewer distributional assumptions than parametric procedures such as the t-test. However, the Wilcoxon rank-sum test can be used only if data are independent. When data are clustered, tests based on generalized estimating equations (GEEs) that generalize the t-test have been proposed. Here we deve...
متن کاملRank score tests.
Nonparametric statistical methods are useful tools for data analysis when there is reason to believe that the outcome variables of interest may fail certain distributional assumptions required for parametric methods. Variables may be ordered categories in nature and thereby not suitable for analysis methods that assume normally distributed variables, such as t tests or analyses of variance and ...
متن کاملGeometry of rank tests
We study partitions of the symmetric group which have desirable geometric properties. The statistical tests defined by such partitions involve counting all permutations in the equivalence classes. These permutations are the linear extensions of partially ordered sets specified by the data. Our methods refine rank tests of non-parametric statistics, such as the sign test and the runs test, and a...
متن کاملRank Tests for Independence and Randomness
This chapter concerns rank tests for independence of two random variables. A form of locally most powerful test against particular alternative is derived and the most often used variants of this test are mentioned, namely the test of van der Waerden type, Spearman rank correlation coefficient, the quadrant test and the Kendall rank correlation coefficient, a member of non-linear rank statistics...
متن کاملOn Rank Tests for Experimental Designs
Statistical methods based on ranking are known to be versatile and powerful techniques. Nonparametric rank tests for two-way analysis of variance have been studied by several authors, for example: rank transform (RT ) proposed by Conover and Iman (1981); asymptotic theory of RT discussed by Hora and Conover (1984), Akritas (1990) and Thompson and Ammann (1990). McKean and Vidman (1994) suggeste...
