Re: [R] Looking for transformation to overcome heterogeneity of variances

Thanks to all contributors for the fruitfulness of this discussion. I am speculating about a simpler solution: to use a non-parametric approach. To avoid the requirement of having normal residuals, Frank Harrell has suggested here the following non-parametric procedure: library(Design) # also req

[R] Looking for transformation to overcome heterogeneity of variances

Dear All My data consists in 96 groups, each one with 10 observations. Levene's test suggests that the variances are not equal, and therefore I have tried to apply the classical transformations to have homocedasticity in order to be able to use ANOVA. Unfortunately, no transformation that I have u
