On comparing variances in the paired case with incomplete data
Division of Statistics, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Uppsala, Sweden
Several tests for the equality of variances in the paired case with incomplete data on both responses are compared using Monte Carlo simulations. The main result is the recommendation to use a test due to Ekbohm (1981) for cases with moderate correlations. A new test proposed in this paper may be the best choice when the correlation is high.
