The approximation for the distribution functions of nonparametric test statistics is a significant step in statistical inference. A rank sum test for dispersions proposed by Ansari and Bradley (1960), which is widely used to distinguish the variation between two populations, has been considered as one of the most popular nonparametric statistics. In this paper, the statistical tables for the distribution of the nonparametric Ansari-Bradley statistic is produced by use of polynomially adjusted normal approximation as a semi parametric density approximation technique. Polynomial adjustment can significantly improve approximation precision from normal approximation. The normal-polynomial density approximation for Ansari-Bradley statistic under finite sample sizes is utilized to provide the statistical table for various combination of its sample sizes. In order to find the optimal degree of polynomial adjustment of the proposed technique, the sum of squared probability mass function(PMF) difference between the exact distribution and its approximant is measured. It was observed that the approximation utilizing only two more moments of Ansari-Bradley statistic (in addition to the first two moments for normal approximation provide) more accurate approximations for various combinations of parameters. For instance, four degree polynomially adjusted normal approximant is about 117 times more accurate than normal approximation with respect to the sum of the squared PMF difference.

Purpose: This article is purposed to present the correct statistic method by pointing out the statistical errors after analyzing the method of articles that were published in Korean Academy Journal of Periodontology and made statistic processes in them. Methods: 488 science papers which being put in Korean Academy Journal of Periodontology published from 2000 to 2006 was divided according to year. Results: In the 308 articles that applied statistic methods, 59 articles (50.0%), the largest portion of all, were included the case that applied incorrect parametric statistic method when needed to apply parametric statistics and 38 articles (32.2%) were included in the case that applied incorrect parametric statistic method when needed to apply non-parametric statistics. Conclusions: It is necessary to present the cases of inappropriate statistical methods in order to improve the quality of academic researches. Also, to apply adequate methods of statistics, it is suggested to report the articles periodically which are comparing and analyzing the statistical methods that are applied in the international articles in periodontal field.

This study was aimed to establish the evaluating protocol and standard assessment for genetically modified (GM) hot pepper and to find out a proper statistic method to analyze for equality of agricultural characters between GM and non-GM pepper lines. GM and non-GM hot pepper lines were cultivated in two GMO fields in the middle region of Korea and total of 52 agricultural characters were collected during the plant growing season for 4 years, 2007 to 2010. Levene's test was conducted to confirm the homogeneity of raw data before statistic analysis. Two-way ANOVA in the multivariate tests and t-test were conducted to analyze 52 agricultural characters in order to find out the equality between H15 and P2377. From the statistical analysis through two-way ANOVA, 16 out of 16 plant growth traits, 9 out of 18 green fruit traits and 7 out of 18 red fruit traits among 4 years and 9 out of 16 plant growth traits, 4 out of 18 green fruit traits and 3 out of 18 red fruit traits between H15 and P2377 have shown the statistic differences. With the same raw data of 52 agricultural characters, t-test was also conducted. Based on the result from t-test, only 1 out of 16 plant growth traits, 2 out of 18 green fruit traits and 1 out of 18 red fruit traits have shown the differences between H15 and P2377, so that it was concluded that there is no statistic difference between H15 and P2377 in terms of agricultural characters. Also, the t-test is a proper statistic method to analyze each trait between GM and its control lines in order to evaluate agricultural characters.

두 블럭인자와 하나의 주인자로 구성된 3 ${\times}$ 3 라틴방격모형의 특성으로 인하여 주효과를 검정하기 위한 순위변환 통계량의 검정력은 모집단의 분포유형에 상관없이 모수적 통계량의 검정력보다 전반적으로 월등히 높은 수준이다. 특히 세인자가 모두 고정인 경우, 하나의 블럭인자만이 랜덤인 경우, 두 블럭인자가 모두 랜덤인 경우의 순서로 주효과를 검정하기 위한 순위변환 통계량의 검정력이 모수적 통계량의 검정력에 비하여 상대적으로 높다. 또한 검정하고자 하는 주효과의 크기가 크되 동시에 동일크기의 하나의 블럭효과 및 또다른 블럭효과 크기는 상대적으로 작을수록 주효과를 검정하기 위한 순위변환 통계량의 검정력은 모수적 통계량의 검정력보다 상대적 우위성을 갖는다.

4 $\times$ 4 균형불완전블럭모형에서 고정효과만이 존재하는 경우 주효과를 검정하기 위한 순위변환 통계량의 검정력은 적은 반복수에도 가장 높은 수준을 유지하며, 지수분포와 이중지수분포하에서는 모수적 통계량의 검정력보다 큰 격차의 상대적 우위를 보인다. 특히 전형적인 균형불완전블럭모형하에서 주인자는 고정이며 블럭인자는 랜덤인 경우의 순위변환 통계량의 검정력은 주효과의 효과크기 및 블럭효과의 모집단 분포와 모수크기에 상관없이 모든 상황에 걸쳐 현저하게 높은 우위성를 보인다. 또한 반복수가 증가함에따라 순위변환 통계량의 검정력은 빠른 속도로 증가한다. 전체적인 주효과의 순위변환 통계량의 검정력 우위는 하나의 주효과 및 블럭효과와 결측값이 존재하는 균형불완전블럭모형의 고유특성으로 말미암아 고정효과 및 표본의 작은 크기변화에 민감하게 반응하며 상대적 검정력 우위를 갖는다고 볼 수 있다.

The relative frequency of order statistics is investigated for independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. Specifically, it is shown that the probability $Pr\{X_{[s]}=x\}$ is no less than the probability $Pr\{X_{[r]}=x\}$ at any point $x{\geqq}x_0$ when r$X_{[r]}$ denotes the r-th order statistic of an i.i.d. discrete random vector and $x_0$ depends on the population probability distribution. A similar result for i.i.d. continuous random vectors is also presented.

This paper considers the problem of testing a variance change in infinite order autoregressive models. A cusum of squares test based on the residuals from an AR(q) model is constructed analogous to Inclan and Tiao (1994)'s test statistic, where q is a sequence of positive integers diverging to $\infty$. It is shown that under regularity conditions the limiting distribution of the test statistic is the sup of a standard Brownian bridge. Simulation results are given to illustrate the performance of the test.

This paper presents an easily used graphical procedure for simultaneous estimation of the index, skewness, scale, and location parameters of the stable laws. First, the index $\alpha$ and skewness $\beta$ are estimated through the joint use of a tail length statistic $\widetilde{K_t}$ and a skewness statistic $\widetilde{K_s}$, both of which are functions of order statistics. Next, the function of order statistics needed for estimation of scale $\sigma$ and location $\mu$ are determined from a nomogram indexed on the estimates of $\alpha$ and $\beta$. Some applications and examples are provided.

In this paper we study the behaviors of the generalized Durbin-Watson (DW) statistics when the nonstationary seasonal time series regression model is misspecified. It is observed that when the series is seasonally integrated the generalized DW statistic for the seasonal period order autocorrelation converges in probability to zero while teh generalized DW statistic for the first order autocorrelation has nondegenerate asymptotic distribution. When the series is regularly and seasonally integrated the generalized DW for the first order autocorrelation still converges in probability to zero.
