• Assumption non fulfillment
• Repeated measure designs
• Type I error

We compared the robustness of univariate and multivariate statistical procedures to control Type I error rates when the normality and homocedasticity assumptions were not fulfilled. The procedures we evaluated are the mixed model adjusted by means of the SAS Proc Mixed module, and Bootstrap-F approach, Brown-Forsythe multivariate approach, Welch-James multivariate approach, and Welch-James multivariate approach with robust estimators. The results suggest that the Kenward Roger, Brown-Forsythe, Welch-James, and Improved Generalized Aprroximate procedures satisfactorily kept Type I error rates within the nominal levels for both the main and interaction effects under most of the conditions assessed.
