LeveneTestLocationMeasure Enumeration

Enumerates the ways the central tendency of a sample is calculated in Levene's test.

[Visual Basic]
Public Enum LeveneTestLocationMeasure
[C#]
public enum LeveneTestLocationMeasure

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.

Members

Member NameDescription
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.
