摘要:Highly correlated characters and those with large errors of measurement should be avoided. A coefficient <3 probably does not mark a real racial difference. A correction for size of population is proposed.

摘要:For samples <50 the distribution of means is composite in form and can not be represented satisfactorily by a simple continuous curve. In using Tippett''s random sampling numbers it is best to allocate the numbers anew for each set of samples. When a distribution of means is representable by a Pearson curve, the goodness of fit depends more on the grouping than on the number of samples taken.

摘要:For conditions ordinarily met with, the frequency distribu-tion of the index, when both components follow the normal law closely, is sensibly normal. In other cases, particularly where the correlation is high and the coefficients of variation are large, there may be a considerable deviation from normality.

摘要:The problem: Given a sample 2 and a hypothesis A that it has been drawn at random from a population n[long dash]how shall the hypothesis be tested? The 1st attempt to solve this problem resulted in Bayes'' Theorem. However, the application of that theorem requires knowledge of the a priori probability law, which follows directly from the problem under consideration only in exceptional cases. All that can be done is to assume some definite form of the a priori law, for instance, that it is cons...

摘要:Coefficients of racial likeness < 3 are found with English Bronze Age skulls, Czechs, Finns, and Roumanians. The crania are brachycephalic and of doubtful homogeneity. Type contours are given.

摘要:Thirty-nine [male] crania have the following means: maximum length, 168.25 mm.; maximum breadth, 147.79 mm.; cephalic index, 87.89; basi-bregmatic height, 135.96 mm.; vertical index, 80.84; basi-nasal length, 96.44 mm.; basi-alveolar length, 93.52 mm.; orbital breadth, 38.56 mm.; orbital height, 33.65 mm. The closest resemblance is with Tildesley''s Burmese A crania. Type contours are given. The Hylam Chinese are the product of the blending of Chinese proper from the northern provinces with th...

摘要:The solu-tion of the problem is given by a hypergeometrical series, which is closely approximated by a Pearsonian Type I curve, the constants of which are simple functions of the constants of the problem. 2 appendices deal with the basis of the theory of inverse probability and with the inverse problem, due to Laplace, of the probable size of a population with a given number of marked members from a sample.
