A Flexible Statistic for Detecting a Preponderance of Short or Long Term Variation in a Series of Events
Shine, Lester C., II
Educational and Psychological Measurement, 37, 2, 331-3, Sum 77
A series of independent, normally distributed events may be broken into intervals on an a priori basis. Then, within interval variance may be compared to among interval variance. These might be considered short-term and long-term variances. This concept and a test for comparing variances are presented. (Author/JKS)
