Statistics and data science, defined

Box’s M

Box’s M is a statistic which tests the homoscedasticity assumption in MANOVA – that is the assumption that all covariances are the same for any category.

The results should be interpreted with caution because Box’s M is not robust – it is very sensitive to deviations from normality.
