Effects of Inapplicability of the Continuity Condition upon the Probability Distributions of Selected Statistics and their Implications for Research in Education. Final Report [electronic resource] / Jack N. Sparks.

Computer routines were devised to investigate the behavior of two statistics, the Student t and the Mann-Whitney U, under specific conditions.
