Abstract
Various methods are described for calculating approximate confidence limits to an index [rho] = 100 [1 - ([mu]e/[mu]c)], where [mu]e and [mu]c are estimated by independent sample means [image]e and [image]c, and xe and xc, have possibly different variances and non-normal distributions.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
