Sumario: | The double symmetry model satisfies both the symmetry and point symmetry models simultaneously. To measure the degree of deviation from the double symmetry model, a two-dimensional index that can concurrently measure the degree of deviation from symmetry and point symmetry is considered. This two-dimensional index is constructed by combining two existing indexes. Although the existing indexes are constructed using power divergence, the existing two-dimensional index that can concurrently measure both symmetries is constructed using only Kullback-Leibler information, which is a special case of power divergence. Previous studies note the importance of using several indexes of divergence to compare the degrees of deviation from a model for several square contingency tables. This study, therefore, proposes a two-dimensional index based on power divergence in order to measure deviation from double symmetry for square contingency tables. Numerical examples show the utility of the proposed two-dimensional index using two datasets. |
