Tamhane's T2 Post Hoc Test

Description

Performs the Tamhane T2 test for pairwise comparisons after an ANOVA model, assuming unequal variances and/or unequal sample sizes. This test is appropriate when the assumption of homogeneity of variances is violated, such as when Levene's test or Bartlett's test is significant.

Usage

T2Test(modelo, alpha = 0.05)

Arguments

modelo

An object of class aov or lm.

alpha

Significance level (default is 0.05).

Details

The test uses a modified t-test with Welch-Satterthwaite degrees of freedom and a conservative approach to control for multiple comparisons.

Advantages: - Controls Type I error under heteroscedasticity. - No assumption of equal sample sizes.

Disadvantages: - Conservative; may reduce power. - Not as powerful as Games-Howell in some contexts.

Value

An object of class "tamhanet2" and "comparaciones", containing:
