The Kruskal and Wallis one-way analysis of variance by ranks
or van der Waerden's normal score test can be employed,
if the data do not meet the assumptions
for one-way ANOVA. Provided that significant differences
were detected by the omnibus test, one may be interested
in applying post-hoc tests for pairwise multiple comparisons
(such as Nemenyi's test, Dunn's test, Conover's test,
van der Waerden's test). Similarly, one-way ANOVA with repeated
measures that is also referred to as ANOVA with unreplicated
block design can also be conducted via the Friedman-Test
or the Quade-test. The consequent post-hoc pairwise
multiple comparison tests according to Nemenyi, Conover and Quade
are also provided in this package. Finally Durbin's test for
a two-way balanced incomplete block design (BIBD) is also given
in this package.

Note, that the 'PMCMR' package is superseded
by the novel 'PMCMRplus' package. The PMCMRplus
package contains all functions from
'PMCMR' and many more parametric and non-parametric
multiple comparison procedures, one-factorial trend
tests, as well as improved method functions,
such as print, summary and plot.
The 'PMCMR' package is no longer maintained,
but kept for compatibility of reverse depending
packages for some time.
