To me, stratified generally means controlling for a non-continuous covariate.

-Somersd- provides rank-based statistics for group comparisons allowing for strata.

I have the same question as Ricardo.

By stratified, we mean controlling for another covariate:

Wilcoxon of Y by X, controlling for Z

StatXact does this stratified Wilcoxon.


David, the parallel is Mantel-Haenszel for dichotomous outcome.

So, the command would look something like this:

ranksum y x, by(z)

or

ranksum y, by(x) strata(z)

If ttest generalizes to regress, then ranksum generalizes to what?
There is a lot of literature on ranksum tests with clustered data if that's what you mean. Maybe you can define your data more precisely...

Dear all,

Is there a way to adjust the -ranksum- test for covariates? Or is there another way to do an adjusted Mann-Whitney U test? Something similar to relationsip between ttest and regress.

Thank you,
Ricardo.
