Looking for an unequal variances equivalent of the Kruskal Wallis nonparametric one way ANOVA
...e both non-normal in nature and which exhibit unequal variances and unequal sample sizes across the 4 treatment levels. My particular concern is to be able to discrimintate between the 4 different treatments (as per the Tukey HSD in happier times). To be precise, the data exhibit negative skew and platykurtosis and I was unable to obtain a sensible transformation to normalise them (obviously trying subtracting the value from range maximum plus one in this process). Hence, the usual Welch variance-weighted one way ANOVA needs to be replaced by a nonparametric alternative, Kruskal-Wallis being ruled out for...
