Popis: | 99 One of the assumptions of test procedures in the conventional analysis of variance is the equality of error variances. When the variances are unknown and unequal, Bishop and Dudewicz (1978) developed an exact analysis of variance for the means of k independent normal populations by using a two-stage sampling procedure. Chen and Chen (1998) used a one-stage sampling procedure to test hypotheses of equality of means in ANOVA model. In this study, we will first thoroughly explore the optimal choice of the initial sample size, n_0, for both the one-stage and two-stage sampling procedures by simulation study. We also investigate the effect on inference about the means of the one-stage and two-stage procedures when the assumption of normality is violated. |
