Abstract: | Large-sample multiple comparisons based upon a chi-square analog of Scheffé's theorem are illustrated by means of 5 examples. The examples involve the correlation coefficients of K independent bivariate normal populations; the parameters of K independent binomial populations; the interaction measures of K independent contingency tables; the parameters of K independent normal populations with unequal variances; and the differences between the parameters of K sets of paired normal populations with unequal variances. In addition, a general test statistic is presented to test the null hypothesis that involves the parameters. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
