Hi everyone,
I need some help on Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test (SAS Studio) in calculating the
1) the row mean score differ and
2) the general association for a set of data. (shown below)
Score below average average above average
Class X 1 9 20
Class Y 3 22 5
Class G 2 3 25
New to SAS, so every answer would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Hi @Sam20 and welcome to the SAS Support Communities!
The first step is to create a SAS dataset from the raw data (if not already done). The statistical tests will be done with PROC FREQ (see Example 46.7 Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel Statistics in the documentation). If the structure of the initial SAS dataset is not suitable for this procedure, you need to adapt it in an intermediate step.
Example:
/* Read raw data into SAS */
data have;
input class $7. below_av average above_av;
cards;
Class X 1 9 20
Class Y 3 22 5
Class G 2 3 25
;
/* Create input dataset for PROC FREQ */
proc transpose data=have name=score out=want(rename=(col1=n));
by class notsorted;
run;
/* Compute Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel statistics */
proc freq data=want;
label score=' ';
weight n;
tables class*score / cmh;
run;

ANOVA, or Analysis Of Variance, is used to compare the averages or means of two or more populations to better understand how they differ. Watch this tutorial for more.
