[Repeated measures analysis].
In this chapter we present the most frequent statistical methods used on the repeated measures analysis, putting emphasis on the different types of data and the limitation of each method. The main objective consists in giving a comparison of the different methods from a practical point of view and with a medical perspective. For each approach we give a brief mathematical introduction, a discussion about the conditions for its application suggesting what kind of data are appropriated and, finally, it is illustrated by the study of the analysis of some data sets including a brief discussion of the results.
