Multivariate statistical methods

Abstract: A text designed to make multivariate techniques available to behavioural, social, biological and medical students. Special features include an approach to multivariate inference based on the union-intersection and generalized likelihood ratio principles.

On methods in the analysis of profile data.

Abstract: This paper is concerned with methods for analyzing quantitative, non-categorical profile data, e.g., a battery of tests given to individuals in one or more groups. It is assumed that the variables have a multinormal distribution with an arbitrary variance-covariance matrix. Approximate procedures based on classical analysis of variance are presented, including an adjustment to the degrees of freedom resulting in conservativeF tests. These can be applied to the case where the variance-covariance matrices differ from group to group. In addition, exact generalized multivariate analysis methods are discussed. Examples are given illustrating both techniques.
