One-Sided Comparisons for Treatments with a Control.
Abstract
Distribution theory for likelihood ratio statistics for the comparison of several treatments with a control is discussed. These test statistics account for prior information that the treatments are at least as effective as the control. It is assumed that the sample sizes on the treatments are (approximately) equal and the sample size on the control is at least as large. Normal means are compared under the assumption of a common variance, either known or unknown. The analogous problem for proportions is also considered. (Author)
