Dear all,
is there any possibility to generate a table of homogeneous subsets for
multiple comparison tests as in SPSS with R? I am specially interested
in Tukey's B test.
I have tried to find the answer myself and found an excellent
description here:
http://www.ppsw.rug.nl/~sda/siv/Posthoc_print.pdf (-> Tab. 2)
Together with the information here ...
http://www.agr.kuleuven.ac.be/vakken/statisticsbyR/ANOVAbyRr/multiplecomp.htm
(Differences between Brands are significant at 5% level if the
confidence interval around the estimation of the difference does not
contain zero.)
.. I am already able to figure out the subsets "manually". But for
larger groups the risk to make errors increases.
I found a description of the SPSS algorithm (here:
http://www1.uni-hamburg.de/RRZ/Software/SPSS/Algorith.115/app10_post_hoc_tests.pdf
)
but as a dentist I cannot really figure out how to do it with R myself.
Any help or hint is appreciated very much.
Thanks a lot already in advance.
Karl-Heinz
