Peer reviewedSchroger, Erich; And Others – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1993
Minkowski distances are used to indicate similarity of two vectors in an N-dimensional space. How to compute the probability function, the expectation, and the variance for Minkowski distances and the special cases City-block distance and Euclidean distance. Critical values for tests of significance are presented in tables. (SLD)

Peer reviewedYu, Mimi C.; Dunn, Olive Jean – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1982
Eight asymptotically robust tests of population correlation coefficient equality are proposed and are studied along with two parametric tests. Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare the small sample performance of these ten procedures. The sampled distributions consist of the normal distribution, two mixed normal distributions and four…
