In the present work we develop partial sequential nonparametric tests for multiple comparison. We provide tests for the identity of several unknown univariate continuous distribution functions against patterned alternatives. Our tests are based on Wilcoxon score. We conduct some Monte Carlo...

The aim of the study is to analyse the sequential paraverbal communication used while teaching by expert and novice PE teachers. Four expert and four novice teachers were observed using a coding scheme of paraverbal behavior. The detection of temporal patterns using Theme v.5 enabled sequential...

We present a new command, metacumbounds, for the estimation of trial sequential monitoring boundaries in cumulative meta-analyses. The approach is based on the Lan–DeMets method for estimating group sequential boundaries in individual randomized controlled trials by using the package ldbounds...

We discuss regression models for ordered responses, such as ratings of bonds, schooling attainment, or measures of subjective well-being. Commonly used models in this context are the ordered logit and ordered probit regression models. They are based on an underlying latent model with single...

In this paper sequential monitoring schemes to detect nonparametric drifts are studied for the random walk case. The procedure is based on a kernel smoother. As a by-product we obtain the asymptotics of the Nadaraya-Watson estimator and its associated sequential partial sum process under...
