Univariate procedures proposed by M. Brown and A. Forsythe (1974) and the multivariate procedures from D. Nel and C. van der Merwe (1986) were generalized to form five new multivariate alternatives to one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) for use when dispersion matrices are heteroscedastic. These alternatives are evaluated for Type I…

A convenient, two-stage general linear regression approach to analysis of variance is described for use in univariate or multivariate designs involving one repeated measurement factor and one or more independent classification factors. A brief illustrative example is provided. (Author)

The equivalence of one-way multivariate analysis of variance and canonical correlation is well known. The usefulness of canonical correlation analysis is performing factorial multivariate analysis of variance is demonstrated. (Author)

The Shine-Bower single subject ANOVA is extended to a multivariate case, with one example assuming between-variate dependencies among within-subject errors and the second assuming no between-variate dependencies among within-subject errors. Standard and simplified multivariate ANOVA procedures are used, respectively. (Author/CM)

The method of unweighted means (MUM) was studied to determine Type I error rates associated with various degrees of imbalance among the cell frequencies. Conditions under which the MUM is a reasonable alternative to the least squares method are discussed, and the issue of power is considered. (SLD)

In the geometrical construct of the MANOVA, the dimensions of interest are primarily those of the significant canonical variates, rather than either those of the original n variables or even the total possible canonical variates. (Authors)

For multi-subject experiments with all factors repeated (a single independent group of subjects), three multi-subject behavior functions are identified and analyzed. They are based on Shine's actualized and pure single-subject behavior functions extended to multi-subject experiments with some factors nonrepeated (several independent groups of…

The basic notion of variability is generalized from a univariate context to a multivariate context using two matrix functions, a determinant, and a trace, yielding a number of alternative multivariate indices of shared variation. Some problems in the interpretation of tests of multivariate hypotheses are reviewed. (Author/BW)

Techniques are presented for use in meta-analysis to obtain effect sizes when information is missing from the original report. A method of reconstructing the mean squares within groups is presented for one-way analysis of variance and factorial designs. (SLD)

A cross-racial comparison of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) was made with the revised version, the WAIS-R. Three groups of Anglo, Black, and Mexican-American male college students were administered both versions of the WAIS on the same day. Significant differences were found among the racial groups.
