The anova.mlm
method uses either a multivariate test statistic for
the summary table, or a test based on sphericity assumptions (i.e.
that the covariance is proportional to a given matrix).
For the multivariate test, Wilks' statistic is most popular in the
literature, but the default Pillai–Bartlett statistic is
recommended by Hand and Taylor (1987). See
summary.manova
for further details.
For the "Spherical"
test, proportionality is usually with the
identity matrix but a different matrix can be specified using Sigma
.
Corrections for asphericity known as the Greenhouse–Geisser,
respectively Huynh–Feldt, epsilons are given and adjusted F tests are
performed.
It is common to transform the observations prior to testing. This
typically involves
transformation to intra-block differences, but more complicated
within-block designs can be encountered,
making more elaborate transformations necessary. A
transformation matrix T
can be given directly or specified as
the difference between two projections onto the spaces spanned by
M
and X
, which in turn can be given as matrices or as
model formulas with respect to idata
(the tests will be
invariant to parametrization of the quotient space M/X
).
As with anova.lm
, all test statistics use the SSD matrix from
the largest model considered as the (generalized) denominator.
Contrary to other anova
methods, the intercept is not excluded
from the display in the single-model case. When contrast
transformations are involved, it often makes good sense to test for a
zero intercept.

The Huynh–Feldt epsilon differs from that calculated by SAS (as of v. 8.2) except when the DF is equal to the number of observations minus one. This is believed to be a bug in SAS, not in R.
