A Note on Optimality of Certain Rank Tests for Ordered Alternatives in Randomized Blocks |
|
| Authors: | K. S. Madhav Rao A. P. Gore |
| Abstract: | Nonparametric tests for ordered alternatives in randomised block designs based on within block rankings have been proposed by many authors. This note is concerned with the optimality of the choice of so-called regression constants usually considered in such rank tests. Some examples are discussed. |
