Dec 19, 2019 at 13:44 comment added Angus EdM, I've examined the level of significance for each item of clothing and accept that UIC has far more highly significant items than Status, which have zero, and MOS, which have much less than UIC. Since this translates into effect size, I would state that the effect is greater for UIC then it is for Status or MOS.
Dec 19, 2019 at 1:24 comment added EdM It would help future visitors to the site if you would edit your question to include the information you provided in comments, as comments can sometimes get lost while there is a permanent record of all versions of questions and answers. It would also help if you could specify the numbers of categories of each of Status, Rank, MOS, and Environment, in addition to the 2900 UICs, as that information could be important in formulating an answer.
Dec 19, 2019 at 1:16 comment added EdM It's been a few decades since I had an MOS, so please remind me what the "points for clothing" allocated to each military member are supposed to represent. Also, I want to make sure that I understand how you did the Friedman tests. I understand that you did these tests separately for each item of clothing and separately for Tier 1 and Tier 2 locations. So in the terminology of the Wikipedia page did you use the 6 separate years as "blocks" to evaluate differences among MOSs, between genders, etc. as multi-category "treatments," or vice versa?
Dec 18, 2019 at 21:37 comment added Angus I should also point out that the number of p values in the order of 10^ (-15) were zero for both tiers 1 and 2 Status; 45 and 62 for tiers 1 and 2 respectively, MOS; and, 61, 109 for tiers 1 and 2 respectively , UIC.

Dec 18, 2019 at 20:53 comment added Angus The purpose of the study is to determine an optimized system for allocating points for clothing to each military member. The current system, a Tiered approach, is based on UIC, which refers to the unit where they work. The Friedman test looks at each item and how many were ordered in each year in each UIC (there are 2900 UICs).
Dec 18, 2019 at 20:44 comment added EdM Could you please say more about the purpose of this study, the questions you are trying to answer, and how you structured the Friedman tests? That information might help you get a better answer.
