Analysis Of Proportions From Split-Plot And Repeated Measures Experiments, Kenneth J. Koehler

Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture

Several methods for analyzing proportions from split-plot and repeated measures experiments are illustrated and compared. One approach simply uses analysis of variance for the usual linear mixed model fit to split-plot and repeated measures experiments. Alternatively, logistic regression analysis is considered and a so-called robust estimate of the covariance matrix is used to adjust for possible correlations among responses. Finally, a quasi-likelihood approach to logistic regression analysis that requires more explicit specification of the covariance structure for the observed proportions is considered. These methods are illustrated with the analyses of data from a repeated measures study of acorn consumption by …
