##### Mean t-Statistic Between Two Groups of Growth Curves

The mean-t statistic of the distance between two groups of growth curves.

Keywords
regression
##### Usage
meanT(y1, y2)
##### Arguments
y1
matrix of response values for the first group, with a row for each individual and a column for each time. Missing values are allowed.
y2
matrix of response values for the second group. Must have the same number of columns as y1. Missing values are allowed.
##### Details

This function computes the pooled two-sample t-statistic between the response values at each time, and returns the mean of these values weighted by the degrees of freedom. This function is used by compareGrowthCurves.

##### Value

• numeric vector of length one containing the mean t-statistic.

compareGrowthCurves, compareTwoGrowthCurves

• meanT
##### Examples
y1 <- matrix(rnorm(4*3),4,3)
y2 <- matrix(rnorm(4*3),4,3)
meanT(y1,y2)

data(PlantGrowth)
compareGrowthCurves(PlantGrowth$group,as.matrix(PlantGrowth$weight))
# Can make p-values more accurate by nsim=10000
