I would like to do a robust ANCOVA (using either rlm or lmRob of the MASS and robust packages) - my response variable deviates slightly from normal and I have some "outliers". The data consist of 2 factor variables and 3-5 covariates (fdepending on the model). However, the variance between my groups is not equal and I am not sure if it is therefore appropriate to use a robust statistical method or if a non-parametric analysis (i.e. ranked regression) might be better. If I can still use a robust statistical method, which estimator is best t...
