Abstract

The permutation test is a nonparametric test that can be used to compare measures of spread for two data sets, but is yet to be explored in the context of three-dimensional rotation data. A permutation test for such data is developed and the statistical power of this test is considered under various conditions. The test is then used in a brief application comparing movement around the calcaneocuboid joint for a human, chimpanzee, and baboon.
