Chapter 16: Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) Flashcards

1
Q

Bartlett’s test of sphericity

A

examines whether a variance-covariance matrix is proportional to an identity matrix
effectively tests whether the diagonal elements of the variance-covariance matrix are equal and whether the off diagonal elements are approximately 0

Q

Box test

A

tests the assumption of homogeneity of covariance matrices
this test should be non-significant if the matrices are roughly the same
very susceptible to deviations from multivariate normality, and so may be non-significant not because the variance-covariance matrices are similar across groups, but because the assumption of multivariate normality is not tenable

Q

Homogeneity of covariance matricies

A

assumption that all variances for each dependent variable are the same across all groups
assumes that the relationships between these dependent variables are roughly equal
tested by comparing the population variance-covariance matrices of the different groups in the analysis.

Q

hotelling-lawley trace (T2)

A

test statistic in MANOVA
it is the sum of the eigenvalues for each discriminant function variate of the data and so is conceptually the same as the F-ratio in ANOVA
it is the sum of the ratio of systematic and unsystematic variance (SSm/SSr) for each of the variates

Q

Wilks’s Lambda (L)

A

test statistic in MANOVA
product of the unexplained variance on each of the discriminant function variates, so it represents the ratio of error variance to total variance (SSr/SSt) for each variate
