1As noted in the results section, in the method of Brunner et al. [37], the denominator degrees of freedom for the test for split plot effects and the interaction of whole and split plots will be infinite. As a practical matter, the upper tailed probabilities for large and infinite denominator degrees of freedom will be subequal. Thus, the code for this algorithm in [38] uses 10,000 denominator degrees of freedom for these tests.
