PC program for simultaneously testing equality of means and variances for paired bivariate normal data.
A menu-driven PC program for simultaneously testing the equality of means and variances for paired bivariate normal data is described, illustrated and made available. While the corresponding tests for independent samples are well-known and widely implemented, in the paired situation only the test for no change in mean values (the paired t-test) has been similarly covered. Tests for no change in variability, while important, are less well-known and not implemented in most commercial statistical computing programs.
