pairwise.perm.var.test: Pairwise permutation F tests

In RVAideMemoire: Testing and Plotting Procedures for Biostatistics

Pairwise permutation F tests

Description

Performs pairwise comparisons between group levels with corrections for multiple testing.

Usage

pairwise.perm.var.test(resp, fact, p.method = "fdr",
  alternative = c("two.sided","less", "greater"), nperm = 999,
  progress = TRUE)

Arguments

resp	response vector.
fact	grouping factor.
p.method	method for p-values correction. See help of p.adjust.
alternative	a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis, must be one of "two.sided" (default), "greater" or "less".
nperm	number of permutations.
progress	logical indicating if the progress bar should be displayed.

Details

The function deals with the limitted floating point precision, which can bias calculation of p-values based on a discrete test statistic distribution.

Value

method	a character string giving the name of the test.
data.name	a character string giving the name(s) of the data.
p.value	table of results.
p.adjust.method	method for p-values correction.
permutations	number of permutations.

Examples

set.seed(0921)
response <- c(rnorm(10),rpois(10,0.2),rnorm(10,,2))
fact <- gl(3,10,labels=LETTERS[1:3])

# Not enough permutations here but it runs faster

# permutation Bartlett test
perm.bartlett.test(response~fact,nperm=49)

# Pairwise comparisons
pairwise.perm.var.test(response,fact,nperm=49)
