The Analysis of Repeated Measurements with Mixed-Model Adjusted F Tests
Bibliographic record
Abstract
One approach to the analysis of repeated measures data allows researchers to model the covariance structure of their data rather than presume a certain structure, as is the case with conventional univariate and multivariate test statistics. This mixed-model approach, available through SAS PROC MIXED, was compared to a Welch-James type statistic. The Welch-James approach is known to provide generally robust tests of treatment effects in a repeated measures between-by within-subjects design under assumption violations given certain sample size requirements. The mixed-model F tests were based on Kenward-Roger’s adjusted degrees of freedom solution, an approach specifically proposed for small sample settings. The authors investigated Type I error control for repeated measures main and interaction effects in unbalanced designs when normality and covariance homogeneity assumptions did not hold. The mixed-model Kenward-Roger’s adjusted F tests showed superior Type I error control in small sample size conditions in which the Welch-James type statistic was nonrobust; power rates, however, did not favor one approach over the other.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
