Multiple Comparison Procedures

In this volume, Larry Toothaker provides the procedures that will enable researchers to establish the significance of differences between two comparable groups. Issues addressed include: planned versus post-hoc comparisons; step-by-step versus simultaneous test procedures; types of error rate; unequal sample sizes and variances; and interaction tests versus cell mean tests. Examples are used to illustrate major concepts.

If you conduct research with more than two groups and want to find out if they are significantly different when compared two at a time, then you need Multiple Comparison Procedures. Using examples to illustrate major concepts, this concise volume is your guide to multiple comparisons. Toothaker thoroughly explains such essential issues as planned vs. post-hoc comparisons, stepwise vs. simultaneous test procedures, types of error rate, unequal sample sizes and variances, and interaction tests vs. cell mean tests.
