two groups with same mean

[pari]

Hello,

I have two datasets with equal mean. How can I classify those two groups? What features should I consider to separate the two groups?

Best,

Pari

Hello,

they are already separated: one group is in one dataset, another group in another dataset. You probably mean some other separation? According to some criteria or goals? What you need to separate and why?

if there is only one variable that you are comparing:
maybe variable transformation? Then the mean of the new variable will not be the same

You can classify cases into the two groups using discriminant
analysis, or logit or probit, to predict group membership. David

Please ask your question in more detail.

are you asking whether the two groups have different spreads (i.e., standard deviations, interquartile ranges)?

Or are you asking whether you can combine the two files but keep track of which file the cases come from?
