摘要:
Three methods of testing whether 2 means differ significantly are discussed, (i) The t test, appropriate when the 2 population variances are equal, may sometimes be misleading if these variances are unequal. (ii) A similar test, based on 2 separate estimates of the population variances, is less liable to bias. (iii) A test proposed from considerations of fiducial probability does not appear to be valid. The comparison of regressions is considered from the same points of view.
