Pw. Mielke et al., PERMUTATION TEST FOR MULTIVARIATE MATCHED-PAIR ANALYSES - COMPARISONSWITH HOTELLINGS MULTIVARIATE MATCHED-PAIR T-2 TEST, Psychological reports, 78(3), 1996, pp. 1003-1008
A permutation alternative for Hotelling's multivariate matched-pair T-
2 test is introduced. The permutation test allows for analyses when th
e number of subjects is less than or equal to the number of measuremen
ts, which is not possible with Hotelling's multivariate matched-pair T
-2 test. For the data analyzed the permutation test is shown to provid
e improved discrimination over Hotelling's multivariate matched-pair T
-2 test.
