Bartlett's Test/Evidence
Method evidence record

Bartlett's Test

Bartlett's Test is a classical parametric procedure for testing whether two or more independent groups share a common population variance. Introduced by Maurice Stevenson Bartlett in 1937, it formalises the null hypothesis that all group variances are equal by constructing a chi-square statistic from the ratio of pooled to individual group variances. It is a standard pre-analysis step before applying ANOVA or other procedures whose validity depends on the homoscedasticity assumption.
