WinerCompoundSymmetryTest: Winer's test of compound symmetry

Description

Run a test of compound symmetry. generates a data frame of random data suitable for analyses. It assesses the significance of the null hypothesis that the covariance matrix is compound symmetric. This test is given without demonstration in w91superb, p. 517.

Usage

WinerCompoundSymmetryTest(dta, cols)

Value

p the p-value of the null hypothesis that the data are compound symmetric.

Arguments

dta

A data frame containing within-subject measures, one participant per line;

cols

A vector indicating the columns containing the measures.

Examples

# creates a small data frames with 4 subject's scores for 5 measures:
dta <- data.frame(cbind(
        col1 <- c(3., 6., 2., 2., 5.),
        col2 <- c(4., 5., 4., 4., 3.),
        col3 <- c(2., 7., 7., 8., 6.),
        col4 <- c(6., 8., 4., 6., 5.)
    ))
# performs the test (here p = 0.6733)
