pairwiseRobustTest: Pairwise two-sample robust tests

Description

Performs pairwise two-sample robust tests across groups.

Usage

pairwiseRobustTest(x, g, est = "mom", nboot = 599, method = "fdr", ...)

Arguments

x

The response variable as a vector.

g

The grouping variable as a vector.

est

Estimate used for group comparisons. "onestep", "mom", "median", or "mean". See pb2gen for details.

nboot

The number of bootstrap samples.

method

The p-value adjustment method to use for multiple tests. See p.adjust.

...

Additional arguments passed to pb2gen.

Value

A dataframe of the groups being compared, the p-values, and the adjusted p-values.

Details

The WRS2 package provides functions for robust estimation and hypothesis testing. This function invokes the pb2gen to make pairwise comparisons among groups. The pairwiseRobustTest function can be used as a post-hoc method following an omnibus one-way anova with robust estimation.
