MANOVA:
This is a generalization of the ANOVA statistical model. It allows
multiple dependent variables. Output is reported as one or more multivariate
test statistics which are asymptotically equivalent but differ in their small
sample properties. These tests include Wilks's lambda, Pillai's trace,
Lawley-Hotelling trace, and Roy's largest root. If the test statistics are
significantly different from zero, the hypothesis that there is no difference
between the multidimensional mean vectors of the categories is
rejected.
