Analysis of variance and principal components methods have been suggested for estimating repeatability. In this study, six estimation procedures are compared: ANOVA, principal components based on the sample covariance matrix and also on the sample correlation matrix, a related multivariate method (structural analysis) based on the sample covariance matrix and also on the sample correlation matrix, and maximum likelihood estimation. A simulation study indicates that when the standard linear model assumptions are met, the estimators are quite similar except when the repeatability is small. Overall, maximum likelihood appears the preferred method. If the assumption of equal variance is relaxed, the methods based on the sample correlation matrix perform better although others are surprisingly robust. The structural analysis method (with sample correlation matrix) appears to be best. |
