Testing Ordered Alternatives in the Presence of Incomplete Data
不完整数据下的有序备择检验
In testing the null hypothesis of no treatment effects in a randomized block experiment, a researcher may restrict attention to an ordered alternative and thereby increase the power of his test. Jonckheere and later Page proposed such test statistics based on the Kendall and Spearman correlation coefficients. Motivated by notions of distance between permutations, we generalize Jonckheere's and Page's tests to the situation in which one or more observations are missing from…
