Multiple comparison for checking differences among normal variances

Pages 4402-4414 | Received 10 Mar 2016, Accepted 31 Aug 2017, Published online: 08 Nov 2017
 

ABSTRACT

In this study, we discuss multiple comparisons for checking differences among normal variances. Specifically, we consider the multiple comparison with a control and the all-pairwise multiple comparison. For the multiple comparison with a control we determine the critical value for pairwise comparison satisfying a specified significance level exactly and formulate the power of the test under a specified alternative hypothesis. For the all-pairwise multiple comparison we determine two kinds of conservative critical values for pairwise comparison for a specified significance level and calculate the power of the test by Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, we give some numerical examples regarding critical values and power of the test.
