Hello, I was trying to test whether two medians are identical or not and used the function “mood.test” from the “stats" package. My co-author, a medical doctor, was trying to do the same in SPSS and had different results.
I wanted to see whether there was a problem on my end and also used the function “mood.medtest” from the “RVAideMemoire” package. I find different results while I am under the impression that both functions claim to carry out the same test and have the same defaults. While my actual data is sensitive medical information, I provide simple code below for a reproducible example. library(RVAideMemoire) set.seed(123) a <- runif(100) b <- runif(120,0.2,1.1) indicator <- c(rep(0,100),rep(1,120)) x <- c(a,b) mood.test(x ~ indicator) mood.medtest(x ~ indicator) Has anybody encounter this problem before or would be able to provide any insights?
