similar to: Classic Levene Test of variances

Has the Levene test of homogeneity of variance been implemented in any library in R?

Hello, does anybody know the procedure how to write a function to generate the power of the two sample F-Test ? Would be glad if somebody can help me. S.Zank [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello R community, I am looking for a robust test for equality of variances that can take observation weights. I realize I can do the F-test with weighted variances, but I've read that this test is not very robust. So I thought about maybe adding a "weights" argument to John Fox's code for the Levene Test (in the "car" library, "levene.test"), substituting

I am trying to use Levene's test (of package car), but I do not understand quite well how to use it. '?levene.test' does not unfortunately provide any example. My data are in a data frame and correspond to 1 factor plus response. Could someone please give me an example about how to use the command levene.test(y, group) Thanks in advance, marta -- View this message in

Hi All, is there Levene' test in R ? If not ,Could you give me some advice about Levene test with R? Thanks a lot! I am waiting for yours.

Hi, All! To calculate Levene's Test for Homogeneity of Variance I use R Commander, and this is the output: > levene.test(Dataset$age, Dataset$sex) Levene's Test for Homogeneity of Variance Df F value Pr(>F) group 1 0.8739 0.3567 33 I am not sure what means "Pr(>F)"? Can anyone explain/translate this? Regards, Iurie Malai Department of Psychology and

Hello, I notice that when I do Levene's test to test equality of variances across levels of a factor, I get different answers in R and SPSS 16. e.g.: For the chickwts data, in R, levene.test(weight, feed) gives F=0.7493, p=0.5896. SPSS 16 gives F=0.987, p=0.432 Why this difference? Which one should I believe? (I would like to believe R :) Ravi -- View this message in context:

hello, I try to run simulation of levene's test to find the p-value but the error of replacement has length zero occur, could anyone help me to fix this problem? asim <- 1000 pv<-rep(NA,asim) for(i in 1:asim) {print(i) set.seed(i) g1 <- rnorm(20,0,2) g2 <- rnorm(20,0,2) g3 <- rnorm(20,0,2) x <- c(g1,g2,g3) group<-as.factor(c(rep(1,20),rep(2,20),rep(3,20))) library(Rcmdr)

Hallo! I just started working with R to do the statistical analyses for my diploma thesis. I got two sets of data. Both contain repeated measures. One has only one within-subject factor with four levels. The other has one within-subject factor with two levels and one between-factor with two levels. I want to compute a Mauchly test for both sets and a Levene test for the second set. I

Hello all, I am low down on the learning curve of R but so far I have had little trouble using most of the packages. However, recently I have run into a wall when it comes to bootstrapping a Levene's test (from the car package) and thought you might be able to help. I have not been able to find R examples for the "boot" package where the test statistic specifically uses a

Hi, What package(s) must I install so that I can apply the Levene' test in my data? I tried 'lawstat' but dependency ?VGAM? is not available for this package. I am using Rstudio Version 1.1.383 Tks [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear All I am trying to use Levene's test (of package car), but I do not understand quite well how to use it. '?levene.test' does not unfortunately provide any example. My data are in a data frame and correspond to 4 factors plus response. Could someone please give me an example about how to use the command levene.test(y, group) ? Thanks in advance, Paul

Hi all, I know that I can run an one way ANOVA on the absolute residual values to check the assumption of equal variances: model<- lm(y~x) summary(lm(abs(model$resid~x))) What if I have two factors? As far as I know I have to check this assumption on very factor/level combination. So if I have 3 factors with three levels, I would have to test 9 factor/level combinations. Here comes my

Dear Mariano, See the function leveneTest() in the car package.

Hello, for my meta-analysis I try to test if two varainces are equal without using the raw scores. I have is the SD's, N's and the Means. I want to test the variances from dependent and independend samples. I assume I can use the var.test procedure for the independent samples, but what about the dependent samples ? Has anyone an idea how to realise this with R ? Thanks in advance

Dear All My data consists in 96 groups, each one with 10 observations. Levene's test suggests that the variances are not equal, and therefore I have tried to apply the classical transformations to have homocedasticity in order to be able to use ANOVA. Unfortunately, no transformation that I have used transforms my data into data with homocedasticity. The histogram of variances is at

Hello, I have some patient data for my masters thesis with three groups (n=16, 19 & 20) I have completed compiling the results of 7 tests, for which one of these tests the variances are unequal. I wish to perform an ANOVA between the three groups but for the one test with unequal variance (<0.001 by both bartlett and levene's test) I am not sure what to do. I thought i would run
