- Levene's test is much less sensitive to non-normality than those of Bartlett,
- Hartley and Cochran, but it does need some correction. I suggest that you
- look at my Letter to the Editor of Technometrics, vol.14, page 507, 1972,
- and you read the paper:
- Yitnosumarto, S. and O'Neill, M.E. (1986) On Levene's tests of variance
- homogeneity, Austral. J. Statist., vol.28(2), 230-241.
