Members
| Member | Description |
|---|---|
| Mean |
The mean is used. This works best for normal data.
|
| Median |
The median is used. This is the default, and gives better results when the data is skewed.
|
| TrimmedMean |
The 10% trimmed mean is used. This gives better results when the data is heavy-tailed.
|
Remarks
Levene's test for homogeneity of variances assumes that the underlying populations of the samples have a
normal distribution. A specific choice of measure for central tendency can make the test more robust when the
data is not normal.
