In stamats/MKinfer: Inferential Statistics

Test for Equal Means in a Repeated Measures One-Way Layout

Description

Test whether two or more samples have the same locations in a repeated measures setting.

Usage

rm.oneway.test(x, g, id, method = "aov")

Arguments

x	numeric, response (outcome, dependent) variable.
g	factor, grouping (independent) variable.
id	factor, subject id (blocking variable).
method	name of method, possible methods are "aov", "lme", "friedman", "quade"

Details

The function wraps the functions aov, lme, friedman.test and quade.test into one function for a repeated measures one-way layout.

Value

A list with class "htest" containing the following components:

statistic	the value of the test statistic.
parameter	the degrees of freedom of the exact or approximate F distribution of the test statistic.
p.value	the p-value of the test.
method	a character string indicating the test performed.
data.name	a character string giving the names of the data.
