Abstract: In this study we discuss multiple comparison procedures for checking differences among a sequence of normal means with ordered restriction. Lee and Spurrier (1995) proposed a multiple comparison procedure which tests the difference between two adjacent means using the difference of sample means. In this study we propose a multiple comparison procedure modifying Lee and Spurrier's (1995) procedure using isotonic regression estimators instead of sample means. We determine the critical value for pairwise comparisons for a specified significance level. Furthermore, we formulate the power of the test. Finally, we give some numerical examples regarding critical values and power of the test intended to compare our procedure with Lee and Spurrier's (1995) procedure.
