ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses detrivialization of one- and two-way tables in graphical analysis. Given a one-way array of entries, which collectively deserve attention, presumably because their mean square survives the rule of two in comparison with some mean square for the error term, it is reasonable to believe that not all the entries deserve serious consideration. The chapter provides a comparison table of hypothetical cumulative with hypothetical 50% and 90% values. Doing the analogous calculations starting from a two-way table need not introduce any new considerations. With two parameters, either number of rows and number of columns; or numbers of entries and of degrees of freedom. The simulation task is larger, and calls more strongly for effective interpolation.
