| The purpose of the paper was to introduce the test for homoscedasticity and the SAS implementation. The test of homogeneity of variance could be divided into the following three categories， ①analysis of variance directly based on comparison of variances， ②analysis of variance based on mean comparison was adopted for the new data from the variable transformation of the original data， ③the method of the χ2 test was used to analyze the quantitative raw data which followed the normal distribution. In the first category， a test statistic that followed the F distribution was constructed directly based on the variance ratio of the two samples. In the second category， there were a variety of different variable transformation approaches for the original data， and the new data after the transformation， which was viewed as the univariate quantitative data collected from a single-factor with multi-level design， was analyzed by using one-way ANOVA. In the third category， the χ2 test statistic was constructed for quantitative data that followed the normal distribution. The paper was based on SAS software to test the homogeneity of variances of three examples， and explained the output results. |
