Dealt with in this paper is the analysis of phenomena involving simultaneous responses among members of small groups during a finite number of discrete time intervals. An exact combinatorial test obtained by conditioning on the sufficient statistics under a null hypothesis is proposed. A specific application of this test is given for the analysis of asthma attack data of asthmatic individuals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
