RMNP2 is a FORTRAN program for analyzing repeated measures data using non-parametric tests. It handles missing data and suits continuous or ordered categorical outcomes, offering a flexible alternative to parametric methods.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Statistical Software

Background:

  • Repeated measures analysis is crucial for longitudinal studies.
  • Existing methods often require parametric assumptions or struggle with missing data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce RMNP2, a FORTRAN program for non-parametric repeated measures analysis.
  • Provide a user-friendly tool for comparing two groups with longitudinal data.

Main Methods:

  • Implements non-parametric two-sample tests by Wei and Lachin, and Wei and Johnson.
  • Accommodates subjects with missing responses under the Missing Completely At Random (MCAR) assumption.
  • Suitable for continuous or ordered categorical outcomes.

Main Results:

  • RMNP2 offers a robust method for repeated measures analysis.
