Rank Tests for Main and Interaction Effects in Analysis of Variance
方差分析中主效应与交互效应的秩检验
A class of rank tests for analysis of variance based on linear functions of the Wilcoxon/Mann-Whitney statistics between cells is studied. This class includes many popular procedures. Assuming a location-family model, a condition for optimal Pitman efficacy of tests of main effects in this class is given. Tests for main effects in two-way layouts that achieve this optimality are shown to improve on previous proposals when the sample sizes are unbalanced. Nested orthogonal…
