A SECOND LOOK AT ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE ON DICHOTOMOUS DATA

The work of Lunney (1970) concerning the appropriateness of analysis of variance (ANOVA) techniques on dichotomous data is discussed and extended. Relations between standard statistical techniques for analyzing dichotomous data and ANOVA procedures are indicated. The need for usefulness of analyzing transformed data as opposed to direct analysis of dichotomous data are discussed. Required statistical procedures employing transformed data are outlined.
