Abstract: | By considering separately B and C, the frequencies of individuals who consistently gave positive or negative answers in before and after responses, a new revised version of McNemar's test is derived. It improves upon Lu's revised formula, which considers B and C together. When both B and C are 0, the new revised version produces the same results as McNemar's test. When one of B and C is 0, the new revised test produces the same results as Lu's version. Compared to Lu's version, the new revised test is a more complete revision of McNemar's test. |
