Welch-James Statistic for Robust Hypothesis Testing under Heterocedasticity and Non-Normality

Implementation of Johansen's general formulation of Welch-James's statistic with Approximate Degrees of Freedom, which makes it suitable for testing any linear hypothesis concerning cell means in univariate and multivariate mixed model designs when the data pose non-normality and non-homogeneous variance. Some improvements, namely trimmed means and Winsorized variances, and bootstrapping for calculating an empirical critical value, have been added to the classical formulation. The code departs from a previous SAS implementation available here, presented in:
[1] Keselman, H.J., Wilcox, R.R., and Lix, L.M. A generally robust approach to hypothesis testing in independent and correlated groups designs. Psychophysiology 40(4):586 - 596 (2003).
