I'm trying to figure out how to determine the effect of three (2 binary, 1 categorical) independent variables on the variability of a number of dependent variables.
My hypothesis is that subjects under certain treatments will be more variable for some or all of the dependent variables.
I know that if I wanted to test which treatments affect the mean of a number of dependent variables, I could use MANOVA, so I was wondering if I could substitute variances of each trait instead of means and test my hypothesis that way.
Thanks for any help!
