ABSTRACT

The applications of the S measure so far were to the independent-groups context. Also, the variance formulas presented there are weIl established in the literature, with the exception of the unbiased estimate formula (5.9) and the consistent estimate (5.11). The function of this chapter is to present an extension of d to repeated measures or data that is otherwise correlated, that ls, d as an alternative to the paired observations t test, or simple repeated-measures ANOVA, and to suggest how this extension can be applied to many other designs that are traditionaIly analyzed by repeatedmeasures ANOVA.
