Hello Jeremy,
Thank you for replying.

I came across friedman test (I even wrote and published R code to easily
perform a post-hoc analysis of friedman
test<http://www.r-statistics.com/2010/02/post-hoc-analysis-for-friedmans-test-r-code/ >
).
But what I am after is *multi-way* repeated-measures anova. Thank you for
your reply which allowed me to clarify my intentions.

Many years ago I remember reading advice in Conover and Iman's "Practical Non-Parametric Statistics" that one could apply a rank transformation to the dependent and independent variables and then run a typical anova test. This is probably inferior in many ways to doing quantile regression (don't know if this has a repeated measures extension) or to the use of robust standard errors for examining inferential issues in regression models, but it certainly represents a useful consistency check when all you are worried about is influential points in a skew distributions. I cannot comment on how it would theoretically behave in a repeated-measures analysis, but I suspect that there are readers of this list who can comment with greater authority, and I invite them to do so.

It's possible to use the ordinal regression model if your data are
ordered categories.  The standard non-parametric test is the Friedman
test.

Hello Prof. Harrell and dear R-help mailing list,

I wish to perform a non-parametric repeated measures anova.

If what I read online is true, this could be achieved using a mixed
Ordinal
Regression model (a.k.a: Proportional Odds Model).
I found two packages that seems relevant, but couldn't find any vignette
on
the subject:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/repolr/
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ordinal/

So being new to the subject matter, I was hoping for some directions from
people here.

Are there any tutorials/suggested-reading on the subject? Even better,
can
someone suggest a simple example code for how to run and analyse this in
R
(e.g: "non-parametric repeated measures anova") ?

I waited a week to repost this question. If I should have waited longer,
or
not repost this at all - then I am truly sorry.

Thanks for any help,
Tal
