Dear all,

I have R code of the following form:

wilcox_test(categoricalResponse ~ binaryTreatment | matchedCluster)

The data consist of 11 matched pairs of clusters, each of which contains a 
variable number of units on which the response variable is measured. Treatment, 
however, was assigned at the level of the cluster. First, is there any way to 
make `wilcox_test' calculate p-value based on the permutation distribution of 
the _clusters_, rather than treating all units in each stratum as independent? 
Second, does the function `wilcox_test' (and similar functions like 
`surv_test') in the `coin' package weights the linear statistic in each stratum 
by 1/(N_s + 1), where N_s is the number of observations in the stratum, as is 
suggested by van Elteren (1960)? 

Thank you for your assistance.

Devin
