Abstract

For square contingency tables, some studies have developed the weighted arithmetic mean type measure to represent the degree of departure from the marginal homogeneity. The present paper proposes (1) the cumulative partial marginal homogeneity model which has the weaker restriction than the marginal homogeneity model and (2) the measure to represent the degree of departure from the proposed model. The measure is expressed as a weighted geometric mean of the diversity index. Finally, numerical studies are presented.
